Where to find deep ceiling roses? (to fill with nice relays and bypasses)

    So my house is filled with normal, shallow ceiling roses, and no neutrals at the switches. In order to get smart relays in, they either go in the ceiling rose (where there's a neutral) or a bypass goes in the ceiling rose (to provide extra load to compensate for a low load LED bulb). The bypasses barely fit if you nibble away the strain relief hooks on the ceiling part. The full Shelly doesn't fit at all.

    I'm looking to find a deeper ceiling rose to replace my regular ones. (or even just a deeper cover).

    I picked up a light fitting* at B&Q quickly at the weekend and completely shortened the cable and put on a regular B22 head, but a cheaper, more direct swap would be better.
