That's my exact concern (I run the same exact setup as you). I'm 6'4, so there isn't much headroom to spare if the roof goes inward instead of outward. Not sure what would happen at all with my carbon roof, so that doesn't make me feel much better...

My initial plan was to install a Slon panel between the rear seat and trunk, along with a harness bar. I wanted a clean look without adding back in weight that I would be removing with rear seat removal. That said, even if a half cage isn't NASA/SCCA spec, I'd imagine that to be a safer alternative?
