Default Need some street safety advice

I need to know how to determine if this roll bar is going to be too close to the driver's and passenger's head. The seats will be here next week and are Corbeaus with a harness.

My primary concern is the danger of someone hitting their head on the cross bar running down underneath the t-top since it is non removable, while the car is street driven and no helmet is being used. I'll have removable side bars for auto-crossing and will have a helmet on when those are in. The center bars are my primary concern. Do they stay or do I take them and the front hoop out?

I've included some photos below to help understand what I am concerned about. Is there a measurement or other point of reference that one can use to determine how far away from the driver's head these bars need to be? Again, the seats will require a 4 or 5 point harness so the occupants should be somewhat secure. There will be no back seat of course.
