Large LED Spotlights

I'm looking to replace existing halogen spotlights throughout my house with LED. The bulbs from my kitchen (x 18) are a couple of centimeters longer in length than I had expected, so 'normal' spotlights wouldn't be flush to the ceiling.
The existing bulbs contain the following marks:
JCC
LP00304
CFL 11W GU10
240V/50Hz 3000K
Not Dimmable 86mA
Can anyone please suggest what the equivalent LED model would be?
If anyone feels like spoon-feeding me a little more, any suggestions for where to buy packs of them from would be appreciated.
Toolstation seems very cheap for regular LED GU10's, with 5-packs of non dimmables from around £7 that may be OK for some of my other rooms, or should I avoid cheap ones?
Thanks and regards.

If you get dimmable GU10 leds they should be the same size.
It being dimmable will mean it has an led controller so they need more space.
You can use a dimmable bulb on non dimmable light but not the other way round.
Out of curiousity why are you changing them? Changing from CFL to LED isnt going to save much money so if there working you might as well use them untill they all start failing.
Edit, your looking for a GU10 led with a height/length of 75mm.0 -

I have a couple out that will need replacing, but my main thought was to saving money off my bills. After quickly 'Googling' what CFL means, I now realise that they aren't halogen at all :rotfl: and on that basis I now have 18 less bulbs to change :beer:
The others probably are halogen, but hopefully of a more standard size.
Thank you very much for the reply.0
