Compass deviation cards should be available for all of the compass systems on an aircraft, having been compiled from the compass swing data. However, a decent, remote reading compass should have deviatios of no more than plus or minus 1° and so applying deviation to planned headings is a bit irrelevant.

The puddle-jumpers (PA34, PA44 etc) I fly have cards for both compasses.
