Well I thought it came internally with the D100?
so you have to set up a remote compass for the D100? 
another thing to write down
Chris..

Hi Chris,

Yes, you need to mount the remote magnetic sensor and run a cable to it.

The Dynon unit comes with extensive instructions which talk all about this
and other installation issues.

Good luck,

Paul

I mounted mine on the floor as far back as I could reach, and only ran a hot lead
to the aft nav light, grounding the ground lead at the tail. The wires were
high up on the side of the fuselage, but still affected the compass.

Discovered that when I turned on the nav lights  the compass swung 10 degrees.
Had to run both a hot and a ground twisted pair to the tail nav light.....Fred

Kevin, 
I had trouble with mine due to one rudder cable being magnetized. I tried de-gauzing
it but the compass would swing over 100 deg. setting still on the ground
and moving the rudder. I have the DEK - 180. I finally mounted the remote on
the back side of the baggage compartment and it is now the most accurate compass
I have ever flown behind. 

hope this helps,
