Can you adapt a rear view mirror with a compass to work in your 2000 S10?

Yes, you can. Most mirrors with compasses in them are made by aftermarket manufacturers; even the OEM mirrors found in modern vehicles. In fact, OEM style compass mirrors can be found for as low as $10.00 + shipping from eBay making them more affordable than universal mirror replacements from brick and mortar parts stores. There are a couple of things to keep in mind before you upgrade. First, the mirror must mount to the vehicle in the same way that the current mirror mounts. GM installed compass mirrors in S-10s as far back as the early 1990's so this should not be a difficult task. Second, you will have to wire the compass to the ignition "On" switch. If you wire the compass to the map light it will put a continuous drain on the battery. Aftermarket mirrors (i.e., Gentex) are provided with wiring kits. However, if a OEM mirror is purchased it might not have the wiring harness with it. If an OEM mirror is purchased and your vehicle did not come with a compass mirror be sure to get the plug, pigtail or harness from the donor vehicle. Also modern rear-view mirrors have additional functionality above and beyond the compass feature and it is a good idea to decide what features you like. Some examples of features include map lights (these work well in convertibles), temperature (must purchase additional thermal sensor), Home-link (garage door opener) and OnStar (this function will not be used in a non-OnStar vehicle).
