I’m going to replace the downlights in my bathroom. Currently there are four 230 V GU10 fittings that are not suitable for bathrooms, and this previous post showed the quality of the installation:

I’m not a huge fan of downlights but I will replace with something similar as I don’t want to try to fill in the holes or move the wiring.
Currently three of the four lamps are functional and the brightest two have 250 lm, 3.5W Phillips LED GU10 bulbs. I really don’t want anything brighter than that, and this is my problem.
I thought it would be easy to find some suitable integrated LED lamps, but I am having trouble finding anything that’s not too bright. For example, TLC don’t seem to have anything below 6 W, and Screwfix don’t have anything below 5 W (370 lm). So perhaps I’ll fit new bathroom-suitable GU10 fittings and use 250 lm bulbs, but the ones I’ve looked at need more depth than I have.
My holes are about 60mm diameter and 80mm deep. Can anyone recommend something? Preferably currently available for delivery.
Thanks.
