Default LiDL under-cabinet LED lights

Any suggestions? I've currently got a 4 * GU10 bar-type (2 swivel arms, 2
holders on each) fitting in the kitchen. CFs are OK in there but take
ages to come up to brightness. Don't really want to put in recessed
fittings (at least not now - may have to do some work on the ceiling
later which might change that) but I don't think there's much beside GU10
or MR16s(? 12v similar size lamps) in surface mount fittings.

(Well, not except standard straight fluoro, but SWMBO ... :-()
