Can you replace the backbox with a plasterboard backbox? These have a
decent lip all around.


They're all wired up and plastered in otherwise I could have pulled them
forwards a bit and squeezed some gripfill through the screw holes in the
back to fix them further forward but they're all crazy foamed in and
trying to move them will most likely do more damage to the surrounding
skim than trying to fill the gap I fear.



Then foam the gaps and use filler on it when it has set.
