JCC lights are not too bad, here is a link to one I found

These have cut outs around the same size as you need, and are suitable for kitchens. They require decent ventilation and should not be covered by insulation. Refer to the instruction pdf.

You should use a competent person for the work, links below

ps
you will struggle to find straight downlights that meet the size requirements as they generally fit a cut out 64mm-90mm. You could use the tilt ones and point it straight down (making it look like a straight spot)

Thanks for that, quite a good site. Not sure though, im kind of looking for a traditional fixed down spot (in brushed chrome :rolleyes: wifes input..lol) . I think I am going to struggle
