After further investigation, I realized I should have bought remodel cans and just called an electrician.


Those are fairly easy to put in. It is the wiring that can be a pain. I installed 5 in my living room several summers ago. Why I chose July to crawl around in my attic running wire, I still can't recall. But if you have access to do that, the remodel cans are easy to put in. One of these:



A spool of wire, wire strippers, and a screwdriver is all you would need. Took me about 2 hours to do the whole thing.

I had Cajun Electric do mine. They used lasers to get everything exact and made sure to make minimal mess. After seeing it done, I could do it now. However, also, for only $150, me not having to get into my attic in July, AND they installed an exterior electrical socket into an overhang, I was happy.
