I measured from the back because I didn't separate the lens from the bezel but it looked to be right at about 4"

Looking good. I'm actually planning on doing that myself sometime in the future. I'm going with FX-R 3.0 projectors with gatling gun shrouds and a Morimoto LED ring.

Did you mount and aim the the projector before gluing everything back together? I have my entire mini H1 kit ready to go but I don't have a spare headlight set at the moment. I have to wait for a non raining weekend to start my retro

Anything higher would defeat the purpose of real HID retrofits: useable light output.

If you want 10k head to eBay.
