Going to install plastic cladding to bathroom ceiling. Can I fit the flush type downlights, as I've been told they get too hot for the plastic.

Almost certainly you will have problems.

If melting of the plastic is not an immediate problem then in a few months the plastic may become brittle as the heat evaporates the plasticising compounds out of the material.
