Default Holes for recessed ceiling lights too big!

Our electrician has accidentally cut all the ceiling holes for some halogen downlights about 6mm too big!

The lights now pass through the holes instead of just covering them.

Does anybody have a solution (other than repositioning the lights somewhere else and filling the holes)?

It strikes me that this must have happened many times before, so perhaps somebody has invented some sort of hole reducer that you can press into the hole or something...

Any ideas gratefully received!
