You are going to have a great summer on Travis.
The are JL MX650-CCX with LED light rings installed. BBP knows more than me about this, but in order to drive the Spectrum LED lights you need new wiring. I believe you can use one existing loop and pig tail off of it to individual lights. I don't think you need a separate run for each light.

BBP?

Yep one loop and tie into each one. Lots of work but worth it.

I tapped into the courtesy lights also I got a China rgb remote for like $14 works great and it's blue tooth. I wasn't sending the big bucks on a wet sounds one.
