A magnetometer separately can go anywhere in the airframe where
there is the least magnetic disturbance. (tail, wingtip, ...)
So don't beat yourself up over the magnetometer. The AHRS
should go somewhere near center CG, but don't get too
worked up about that either...in our planes, most of the practical
locations would be fine. (behind the panel, in the tail, ...)
Some of it will depend on your EFIS choice, since if you're
using one with an integral magnetometer, it may be harder to
find the perfect place for the complete package. It would
help if you knew how big the possible hat shelf would be, so
you could know your available space.

above the battery free for a future hat shelf, but don't want to place
things too far aft if there is a reason one should keep the AHRS and
magnetometer closer to, say, the mid of the plane. If either is back
further into the tailcone, could that mess up their readings?

I installed my most forward cross member as close to the F-1006 as
possible, and just behind the bolts joining the F-1046 and F-1032
Longerons together, almost directly above the battery. I have had
no problems with interference, except where I failed to use brass
bolts and washers to install the magnameter onto the shelf.
Since the duel AHRS and magnameters are all on a shelf next to each
other in the center of the fuselage the left and right seat belt
cables just cross above the cross members and are no problem. If
you were to install the AHRS or magnameter next to the fuselage side
wall they could cause interference.
Best regards,
