Make the hole bigger?
BTW - if there's a loft above, what have you done about sealing all the paths for warm moist air so as to not get condensation up there, and what have you done about re-instating the insulation?

The insulation os currently lifted from that particular section of the loft, until the lights get replaced at least.

I thought I'd replied to this post 
Anyway, have a google for "bell downlighter convertor"
They will fit your existing cutout, and are available with a dropped glass similar to your existing fittings.

Fit some halers H2 LED downlights and then use their conversion plate - it will cover holes upto 150mm (about 6")

The LED lights are v good and only use 10W

How come you mention part P all the time and then now recommend to replace light unit in a bathroom....

Perhaps it is because the OP is not in England or Wales?
Correct, in Scotland.
How come you don't realise that Part P does not prohibit replacing lights in a bathroom?How come you mention part P all the time and then now recommend to replace light unit in a bathroom....
The cut out hole measures just over 5 inches (127mm), would those Halers fit that ?
Evening,
your tags show you as being in angus. If your near Dundee, have you tried any of the electrical wholesalers?
Take one of your fittings and try Ross Electrical (branch of neweys) and see if the lads on the counter can help.
