Invest in LED marker bulbs for the new ones. Regular bulbs (W5W) run too hot and open up the housing to lens seal in the center where the bulb mounts causing water ingress.
I believe they are LED already (2012 Rapide).

OEM 2012 is still a bulb or you wouldn't have to change them.

Where do you find LED side markers for '12 Rapide then?

Just the marker bulbs, change the BULB to an LED one so it doesn't damage the lens over time from heat.
