    Where is directional compass info on plugin Prius (standard)? It is not in birds eye view on the GPS map.
    Thanks, Ron B

    Did you try looking in your owner's manual?

    Of course I looked in the manual. I would appreciate an answer, not a wise nice person remark.

    It was actually an honest question. You would be surprised how many people don't. And yet most answers are found there.

    I'm not that familiar with the PIP, so I'm not sure what nav system you have. But, the Display Audio system found in the Hatchback shows the compass in the upper left-hand corner of the map. You can see it here: http://www.toyota.com/t3Portal/document/om/OM33A02U/pdf/n02-03.pdf. The HDD Nav (which I have) is the same.

    If yours is different, you might have better luck, as Big Steve suggested, by posting in the PIP forum.
