I’m trying to install a ceiling fan where I have an existing light fixture.

My ceiling fan is a flush mount and after wiring it up I’m not really able to fit all of the wire nuts up into the shallow box.

My ceiling fan doesn’t have a separate light kit so I plan to wire ceiling red to fan black, ceiling white to fan white, ceiling bare to fan green, and leaving the ceiling black capped.

With the flush mount piece installed how can I get the wire nuts inside? Is the box too small? Are there any alternative options?

Thanks for any and all help!
