We have spotlights in various room of the house. Some bulbs are starting to go and I would like to replace them with LEDs.
we brought some off ebay, however when going to fit too long, there 56mm.
I'm trying to find some that are 50x50mm
Any advice?

Are these GU10 spots? They are normally 55/56mm I think. You could look at ledhut -- they have a lot of detail about each bulb.Je suis sabot...0

depending on the fitting, the original lamp holder can be removed and replaced with a lamp holder that is floating.
ie... its just a lamp holder with a short piece of flex attached:j0 -

Another vote for LEDHut. Install their stuff all the time now.

If they are mains halogen replacements, then these fit and give equivalent light output. Not dimmable, but they do have a more expensive dimmable version
