Ken,

I have this measured from the front where the side panel is welded to the dash panel. It was about 5 1/2 to 5 3/4 inches.

Here are a couple of photos. I would mount my top and doors to make sure it is all going to work out before drilling holes.

I first put the doors in the sliders on the window, and looks where i put them. I had the chance the holes still in the tube were on the right place.
