I use an M2 dual diagonal hard dog sport-for hard top and glass rear window- and it does not affect seat travel at all.

I believe the M2 affects seat travel due to the front down bar design.. the M2 doesn't allow for the seat to go back as far?? Do some checking, but as I recall when I was looking for a bar, I looked into it and being 6'3" I couldn't use the M2, it pushed my seat forward. Look at some photos of cars with each, I think the difference is obvious. (or ask Had Dog).
As always, YLRMV (your leg room may vary)!

| Ivica also recommended the NB/M2, but off of a used car. What makes the M2 better than the M1? Any other reason not to get the padding from Hard Dog also, or is it just price? I probably also should have mentioned that I need one that will fit with my hardtop also. Mainly I’m confused on why an M2 because if they both fit why offer an M1 at all?

Subject: Re: New Top (w/ Glass) and Roll Bar (NPC)I just put on a Hard Dog Sport on my wife's 2001 with the help of some buddies. It was the easiest rollbar install ever. 4 honest hours of work, start to finish, with no hurrying. Everything fit beautifully. Hard Dog has really
come a ways since I installed my HDHCDD in my 97 eight years ago.
The long drillbit is totally worth it. Mine drilled 5 of the 6 holes needed before it broke. Fortunately, a short one was able to drill the 6th rear leg hole.
The HD Sport fits fine with the glass window.
Get an NB top and an NB (er, M2 as they're called by HD) rollbar. I'd get something that would allow for future hardtop use. And get some SFI padding! I like the stuff that racerpartswholesale has. $20ish per stick.
