I need a favor (measurement from roll bar to top)

I pulled my top in preparation for a roll bar installation but forgot to measure how much room there is between the factory roll bar and the convertible top (vertically). If anyone finds them self near a tape measure and a Boxster would they mind taking a measurement?

It is tights. When I run my hand around the roll bar I can feel the headliner. The sides are just about touching.
