Default What is this ...

I recently bought a 2006 Lariat Screw. I noticed this thing behind the rearview mirrow. It has a button on it but I have no idea what its for, other than maybe to defeat the auto dimming. There's no mention of it in the owner's manual. Any ideas?

That box is the compass module. The button is for setting the compass zone. The instructions for calibration are on page 84 of the manual IIRC.
