Default Leds some more

My boat had reading/spot lights with regular incandescent bulbs. They were
junk and used a lot of power.
Costco has some outdoor led spots. They have 4 leds in each one.Package of
4 lights, solar panel and rechargeable batteries for $50.
So what would it take to retrofit for 12 volt operation without blowing
them when the alternator kicks in. I want them paralleled so I can switch on
and off individually.
Would these even be acceptable for reading lights? Would I want to make
diffuser covers to scatter the light?
Thanks
Gordon
