It's lamps I wanted advice about

It's lamps that I am completely in the dark about.
If I know what needs to be done - I can do it.
I upgraded stereos in both cars, but I needed instructions.
Ecodes are in my range, but why do it?
I just didn't want anything that started with "Ok, check and make sure you've got an alternator that ..., now got some 14# wire? "
There's lots of threads about unintended consequences of elec work.
What I am completely clueless about is bulb types and lamp terminology. It would help if I knew what a "back cap" was.
I don't know the difference between Thomas Edison's, LEDs, halogen, argon, kryptonite and wizards' wands when I see them on a car. And I sure don't know the advantages or disadvantages of the available options and which are reasonably installed on my 900.
If it's as simple as changing a relay and rewiring a couple connectors - no problem. But, what about the types of lighting available? Pluses, minuses?
Thanks, Buck
