I would also like to know. I've been searching for decent side markers and every pair I've come across either has no reviews or they complain about water retention and/or the metal clips breaking.

Yeah I have them. Great quality, no water issues.
Avest and valenti side markers probably the best on the market.

So these are wired to be turn signals too? Pictures of these would be awesome. Or videos.

Any US distributors for these?

These side markers have their own bulbs from what I've read, if anyone else can give insight on these.

I thought these were it since it was the first link of searching "valenti side markers":
http://www.instructables.com/id/Inst...-Side-Markers/

But the valenti side markers are totally different. Wonder if they're plug and play, can't find any info on these.

I would suggest that as the side markers are push fit bulbs, these will have a similar push fit connector.

If they're anything like the sidemarkers I have (mine look identical), then the lights are one piece with the sidemarker and they have a connector that fits into where the bulb plugs into on the sidemarker stalk.
