Default Question regarding lighting in Trans Am's which light is what?

Okay I am planning on converting my interior lighting to Red LED's. My first question is can someone explain what light is the Map light and what light is considered the dome lights?

Also for the lights located in the doors above the window switches should I by a white LED since their is already a red lense located in it or a Red LED?

Help is greatly appreciated!

Any tips or advice before I do this would be awesome as far as the installation goes.

Map lights are in the mirror and the dome light is the one over the back seat. Go with red LEDs in the door even though the lens is red...in fact most people take the lens out and just run a red led there.

The install on all of them is simple and straight forward.

I'd also like to know what bulb is recommended. All I've read is "a festoon bulb", and it seems there are quite a few to choose from.
