As for the light leak from the fan get some 4" dryer hose or flexable tubing paint it flat black on the inside, attatch it over the hole using duct tape then bend it at 90 degrease walla no light leak from outside or inside.

I like the light shining thru the fan, looks like the 'puter has Intel: Supercharged... but yea thats quite some creativity, good job!
how tall is it from the light to the bottom?
Oh the light doesn't leak outta the fan anymore...well it didn't. I crafted a little vent thing that I saw a design for on this site and it worked great for killing the light, It killed the fans ability to move air though. Thats mostly because it was hastily made, I can easily make an effective one that won't mess with the fan once I've got the motivation too. There are a few other light leaks that I need to deal with by taking the case apart and dealing with them via some kinda caulking compound. But that'll have to wait as the box is currently playing home to two headies seedlings.
As for the over all height, from the lights to the floor of the case is probably about a foot and a half to two feet, I'm too lazy to get the measurements now. All you need for a good bushy bonsai mother is about 8 inches by 8 inches.
For my pc grow i took big black trash bags and cut them to fit over the holes. With the light blocked out i took mylar and covered the entire inside.
Hmm...that could work, I'd have to strip all the aluminum tape off the inside. I dont think I'd go that far just because the light leaks are very minimal at the moment, aside from the glowing beam that comes out of the fan hole.
