If there is insulation, you want it around the can to prevent air infiltration into the room. Make sure you install them correctly and you'll never have to touch them (aside from light bulb changes) again!

If there is a second floor, there should still be some sound-proofing insulation. If there isn't you'll want the top-hat, its a foil barrier that keep sthe insulation from touching the metal on the lights, as they tend to get kinda hot. Trust me on this one, I installed insulation for the largest insulation company in the world for a couple years.
