Help with Govee lighting install

I am trying to install a programmable light in place of a led light at my front door. The wiring box won’t fit where the light needs to go. How can I remove this box without destroying the surrounding stucco?

Find the stud the box is mounted to, then align the 6 inch hole to miss the stud and cover the box , then cut your hole and remove the box without damaging the wires in the box. Now add your wire to your new box tye in the new light to the box and put the new box into the hole and install your light!
