Not that recently (7 years!) ... I made a fake ceiling out of plasterboard, drilled holes at random intervals and set in flush halogen downlights from Wickes. Took 2 evenings with two of us - the only hard part was threading through from the ceiling space; the LED transformers need airspace due to risk of overheating, so couldn't just be shoved behind the fake board.

Not sure if this what you're asking but here are the lights:

More similar.

I had a quote for this recently. Think it was going to be about £350 to supply and fit spotlights. I decided not to bother in the end tbh.

thanks both - had not thought of diy garlic but will investigate further
