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)!

RE: New Top (w/ Glass) and
Roll Bar (NPC)
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?

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.
