Just refitted some of ours like this.
Red bits point downwards, pointing towards the light, and wedge into the hole. This fixes them in pace while the yellow bits push through the hole and the spring holds them in against inside of ceiling.
The springs are TIGHT. Get up on a ladder to allow you to get really close to them, you really have to squeeze the reds together to get them into the hole without damaging the plaster.

Plaster dry, time to put the light back. Of course it's not easy. Any YouTube is no help.
These yellow bits will push in enough to go through the ceiling hole, but not the red bits.
How do I do it? The red bits don't seem to move enough in any direction to fit.
