Hi, I want to buy some downlights to fit under an external canopy and open porch. What IP rating should I be looking for?

I was going to use CFL lights instead of the hotter halogen ones as the underside of the canopy is UPVC. The only CFL ones I've seen are rated at IP65 (sold as suitable for showers) and IP20. Would I be right in thinking IP65's are the ones I need?

Thank you.
