        A:

        This is a marine compass so it would mount with a screw through the dash of your boat. I highly doubt that you would want to mount this in your car with a screw through the dash. We do not make recommendations on how to use our products in any way that is different than their intended use, for legal purposes. The outside dimensions for this compass are: 2-7/8"H x 3-5/8"W
