Extra large downlight converter kit?

[polo1]

Extra large, as in the hole in the ceiling is extra large!!! Looking for a (preferably brass) converter kit where the outside dia of the ceiling plate is 150mm. I came across one site but they were looking for £35 each and I need three.

I appreciate that the existing holes in the ceiling could be made good, but the customer wants to avoid redecoration if at all possible, but balked at £100 for materials. I've Googled, but does anyone know of anything suitable.

Ha! If you find one let me know, the light I need to cover the hole alone is bigger than 150mm

What's so special about the ceiling that means it can't be redecorated?

I have used these LV GU10 converter fitting £17.61 + VAT. I got them from KEW electrical part No CR8 0WH. WH for white. Hope this helps.

Jeeze, I've looked at dozens of sites and didn't think of Eterna... thanks M. Ideally looking for something just a bit larger as the holes are not perfect circles, but these are the nearest yet!

These are really cost effective - I have one in my "stock" to show people!

Hi Polo,

I've used these a few times now.. Ceiling downlighter hole convertor downlight cover LED light conversion kit | eBay

They only do them in white but its a good quality piece of metal. Perhaps expensive for what it is, but it has really helped me a few times! Looks like they have one that is 170mm diameter. Plus with these you can still choose whichever downlight you want!

That is an Eterna part number!

OP, have you asked your wholesalers on this?

I don't think I've come across such a fitting to ever have the need to ask, but the Ansell units I have used and comfortably changed up to R80's are around £3-4 + VAT.
