What vendor or site has the best LED sidemarkers? I have a set right now but one is taking on condensation... I'm looking for something with a rubber seal behind it similar to the oem ones. Any help would be appreciated.

You can actually buy a led replacement bulb and install in the oem housing.

+1...the LED ones that come with a housing actually looks like a downgrade to me...It's encased in a cheap plastic chrome looking thing that looks like car bling you can by at one of those carts at the mall. Contact john@motorcepts to get the LEDs that go into the existing housing.

The LED are 194 bulb type. I have blue ones. I also have red ones and white ones. All three look good. To smoke them if you want....get some tint and wrap it around the sidemarker and your done. Or you can spray it using VHT.

I got a set of '3 LED' side blinkers in clear off eBay cheaper than any vendor offered, and they are great.

I don't know about know, but the first ones I got were from Bimmian and they did not have the rubber seal.
