Wire the lights to the old rose, its only two wires and earth. You will also need to do equipotentail earth bonding. If you dont know how to do the easy bit you'll not be able to do the earthing bit to the satisfaction of the local authority. Because you will be notifying them, wont you?

All electrical work in a bathroom is notifiable so really you need a qualified electrician who can do the work safely for you and take care of the notification bits.

Supp bonding and downlights.....particularly SELV......DISCUSS

And while we do that.........include inline fans too

do i connect a junction box and then run the six sets of wires from there to the six lights
