Does anyone know the clearance between the halo's plastic interior trim panel and whatever is above it?

Since you are the paragon of memory, can you tell me how to remove it?

I have no idea what that means, but I take it you have a coupe ??? I had my interior gutted at the time, so I had the top off, it might be easier, just a couple of plastic push pins on each side and the latch area needs to be unlatched and there might a screw or push pins there ??? I hope that helps because my paragon might be out of order ??
