Default Need a measurement off stock clutch master cylinder

I think there's an issue with a non adjusting master I got with my m6 swap combo. The clutch pedal won't pull all the way back to trigger the cruise switch. It sits about .5 to .75 inches from the backdrop. I need to know rod length from 2 known points so I can see if its an issue with master or I have some other issue. Much appreciated.

Here's a pic of pedal at rest.

is the cruise switch adjusted down all the way? even with an adjustable shortened pretty far there's enough adjustment in the switch to counter it, unless the master is just mounted too low

Here's a pic.. if I verify normal rod length then I will assume its installed to low but Id like to know that initially before I pull it out and try to raise.

Ended up being issue with installed height. Just drilled holes 1/4 higher on firewall and fixed issues.
