hmmm...is showing for me.  :clueless:

The main difference is that the rallye bar has four lights with longer lenses than the non rallye. They are spaced closer together as well.

Probably not a solution for the purist, but I considered using one of the 12v neon tubes like the ricers put all over their cars.  Would hide away nicely and you could make a diffuser fot it if it turned out to be too bright for the dash. I actually considered doing this myself as I wanted to experiment with different dash flood colors.

well my car is not "pure" though I like to keep as much original as possible...

I would be happy with a factory ralley lightbar, but if mine turns out to be a std and there is not enough light I will have to do something...
