    Top of the mirror is usually around 6'-4, but it depends on the mirror size and what your preference is. I'm tall so I like it up higher. How high is the ceiling? Around 7 feet should be good for the light.

    From nothing to several inches. Depends on the fixture and your tastes.

    There is NO set number nor is there a rule of thumb.
