You all probably know my opinion on the whole rollbar deal but I'll share it 
again anyway.  The rollbar needs to be tall enough so that when a line is drawn 
from the roll bar to the front of the car where it will hit the ground, the 
drivers head will be 2" below the line.  For a roadster that means the roll bar 
needs to be much taller than will fit under a top.  Anything less than that 
will provide no protection (ZERO) to the driver or passenger.  It is only for 
vanity at that point.  My advice is to leave the rollbar out and operate the 
top easily.
