2 inch Level Kit effect on cab height

Looking at a '19 SD that has cab lights. I have a pretty tight garage fit with a sloped driveway approach. I'm test driving the truck and bringing it to my house today to see what clearance I have currently with my garage. I would like to put a leveling kit on assuming I end up with the truck but want to figure out how much it will raise the high point (cab lights) so I can determine ahead of time if it will fit in my garage. Making the assumption that the height will not quite be a 2 inch bump with a 2 inch kit since the lights are back several feet. Anyone ever measured their cab height change after adding a level kit?

I have an f350 ccsb with 2" level. The high point is near back of the cab about 8' from front axles and around 5' from rear axles. You'll be about an inch higher. I had to remove a piece of trim from garage frame and had a door company adjust the garage door so it comes up to the frame but it fits.

Thanks! I am going to take a closer look at my garage door when I get home to see if there is enough trim I could remove just in case.
