I guess it all depends on where you mount them for weathering the elements. an original door switch for, say, a square body would be mounted inside the weather seal on the door or would have a rubber bellows seal around the exterior push pin part so it wouldn't see water etc with the door closed. some newer style switches are mounted outside the weather seal but are waterproof on that side of the switch with the wiring being inside the vehicle. scroll through the video here till it shows the actual switch for a ford and how it is sealed outside but has the wiring inside the cab. it is a lot like the ones you pictured but has a large hole compared to some of the older style stuff with a smaller threaded hole in the actual jamb.

here is a site that shows a few different automotive style push pin switches

some will have 2 wires which normally means the switch is not grounded so one wire would go to ground and the other would go to the light.
here is one from an 06 Colorado. not sure on the electrical connection but possibly you could find one that is weatherproof on the connector. then a spot like the one suggested by mr48 would work well because it is a more straight on hit when the door closes and no wiring needs to go through a hinge point.
