you need to change the rose to a 4 way junction box, then connect a flex to the light from the jb.

do note what goes where, digital camera is good, so is a marker pen

Hopefully your new light has a reasonably large base as you will need to cut a hole so you can shove the junction box up into the ceiling...

i found a four way junction box at b&q however the "box" is round lol and still too big to put in the ceiling and to be fair the instructions were not really helpful to a complete novice ie me so maybe i ought to admit defeat and pay someone who knows what they are doing instead . or go on a sparkys course lol
