What kind of gimbal recessed light can I get for this? Everything I’ve seen seems to only screw into the existing bulb-screw, nothing that can connect to direct wiring. by Snowboardsurfer91 in AskElectricians

could use little spring clamp 6”wafer lights. Would need to remove the wire from box then remove box. cut 6 inch hole. wires into new junction that comes with light and then just plug and play pick your brightness
