yeah...you'll wanna get the hella h4 conversion.  You can buy that for 75 bucks and then upgrade the bulbs for like....15-25 I think....you can get them at pdm racing or clearcorners I think.  You can put HID bulbs in too, if you're into that.

hella makes a conversion for s14 headlights?.. what exactly does it do different?

not sure, but make sure the HID bulbs will fit.
I helped my friend put them into his prelude, and we had to bend the reflector in the housings to make the bulbs fit w/o touching the housings.

for S13s and S12s.. you need a H4 conversion.. because they have sealed beams.. just get that and you can use H4 beams.. if you want you can get HID [H4]s..

with the S14+ you need the builb size i think it was 9006 i believe.. i forgot.. long time ago..

i need h4's for my low's.. i just was wondering if you know any companies that make good h4 beams that are reliable and look dope...   piaa's are sweeet,, but they are expensive. i was just wondering if they were worth it, or if they are basicaly the same as 30ish dollar ones.
