Lightbulb Laser Blue Bulbs

Hi all I have just converted my low beam to xenon and they are awesome. All I need now is laser blue bulbs for my side lights and main beam. Any Ideas where I can get them from. Full beam is HB3 and side light is W5W. Looking forward to all you guys helping me

I just used some phillips blue side light bulbs, but have not done main beams, as I believe the blue coating reduces the light output, so left them standard, led sidelights are another option but a lot are to blue, so you need to do some research first, I bought a cheap pair off ebay and did not like them

Why not go 90% uprated in the HB3's, Halfords, Osram, Philips etc all do good bulbs. DO NOT go for higher wattage though

Or you could go HID all round?

Go HID for the HB3's IMHO, stick to 4300 K as any bluer will cause scatter in damp/misty conditions.
