I actually do recall seing this on a GT6 in one of the many books at 
home. The story - if I remember correctly - was that it was not done 
by Triumph, but that Triumph would send the car off the assembly 
line, and directly to this after-market manufacturer, and you could 
have it installed. Looked quite neat on the picture that I saw. I 
will get back to y'all when I get home and check it out.

Best regards,
