Has anyone put a set of jw speaker leds in a 200 series? if so, do they fit easy at the back of the light as I think it will be a tight fit.

One thing to remember with headlights is that the reflectors are designed to work with the installed bulbs.
Changing them for something else is fraught with problems and may not even be legal.
IE. Putting HID bulbs in standard enclosures. Due to the different length the filament extends from the housing the focus goes to hell and flaring and glare can be the result. It is also illegal to retrofit HID's of over 2000 Lumens unless you have washers and a levelling system.
Maybe the same with LED but mostly it is illegal to fit anything that is not fitted to one of the models of the vehicle

the speaker leds need a little room behind the headlight , there may not be the room behind battery and headlight , being led you may be dissapointed with the light they throw out
