Side repeaters are useful for side on views as, when looking at most modern cars, one cannot see the front or rear light clusters clearly when 90 degrees on to the car.
There is however another reason why the old style wing mounted lights are now on the mirrors, relating to the corrosion protection of the vehicle. If they are mounted on the mirrors, there is no longer the need to have a hole in ones front wing with light fittings etc attached and the increased opportunity of water ingress/potential corrosion.......
