How to replace sealed light in bathroom

[333rocky333]

The other label refers to the voltage, type and maximum wattage of the lamp and the minimum distance from the lamp to a flammable surface, none really relevant now to Led, the fitting was made originally for Halogen lamps

What would you recommend I do in this case? Is it still safe to use (esp. while showering)? Should I re-seal it with sealant? Or would I need to get a completely new fitting installed?

Ideally would want to avoid the latter as this would be beyond my DIY capability so I'd probably have to get someone in, which is more cost and faff than I think I'm ready for unless I really can't avoid it.

If you can ease the body out a bit more, then clean off the back rim and the ceiling enough so it fits flatter to the ceiling, failing that fit the cover and silicon round it and worry about changing the lamp when it fails next time

i would measure the cut out and try to get a new one to match size, looks a little messed up, you do not or should not require sealant. What make was it cant see from your lael, you may be lucky and find the same one
