Default Still have a compass?

I'm Canadian so yes, I have a compass in my glider. I wish I wasn't required to have one because I would like to use the panel space for something more useful but the operating and flight rules as well as my type certificate mandate one. I put a PAI vertical card unit in so I would at least have a compass rose to refer to. I took a look at the FAR's out of curiosity and was surprised by how little there was in there relating to gliders. As pointed out 91.205 doesn't apply to gliders, is there any section of the FAR's that does spell out anything about required equipment etc.?
