Does anyone know what angle the body of the defender tapers off toward the roof?

As in: if I were to put a protractor vertically on the door of a defender, at what angle is the roof? (please don't say up :p)
Im thinking no more than 10-15 degrees off vertical
Id go and have a look, but i don't have a protractor or my defender handy :(
thanks guys

By my measurement just now, 5 degrees (I do have a protractor handy!). For the record, it is the same on Series 2/2a/3/90-110/Defender

I guess it's about how accurate you want it. And what you will be happy with??

Thanks heaps for that guys :)

Perhaps it was ambiguous, i was after the angle that would be on the door toward the roof, but the roof measurement is also good to know!
So I'm not sure which one you measured John, hoping for the door!

I actually measured the angle where the door bends about two inches above the waist. I gather this is what you wanted.
