Please, don't DO that! Once you ask a question, it's not yours any more. It belongs to the forum. There are other people who may have wanted to know the answer. When you remove a question, you deny them the chance to learn. It doesn't matter whether you figured it out all by yourself, or you were embarrassed to have thought of such a silly (to you) question. Your generous act of asking the question in the first place helps other people in ways you may not imagine.

Seconded. I'd been hoping that replies to the original question -- how to make a component of a vehicle continue to point the same direction, no matter how the vehicle itself moves -- might give me some clues about a problem with which I've been playing recently.
For what it's worth, I've been trying to make a child prim on a hovering vehicle rotate independently of the vehicle, to point where I direct it. All the solutions I've tried with llRotLookAt and llLookAt, which work perfectly well in a child prim of a physical object that's not a vehicle, seem to cause the whole object to spin uncontrollably if deployed in an actual vehicle. If anyone does have any suggestions, I would be most grateful.

Not to mention the scripting forum doesn't need a "just ignore and let this one die" thread.

my only thought is to constantly poll the vehicles rotation, then cancel that out to a world relative rot, perhaps applying your further rotation after that.... which seems VERY messy. you could cut down on the polling I suppose if you only checked when the vehicle was moving, or when it turned (although that'd lose changes due to ground angle) but that's only feasible with vehicles that can't rotate on the spot.
from the child I *THINK* it's
llSetRot( (ZERO_ROTATION / llGetRootRotation()) * RegionRelativeRot );
