Thought so. "Raised Detail", you hear that bd? Glad to know they're making them both ways now.

It's amazing how interchangeable these trucks are

Here's the 'correct' side mirror on a '80.

Didn't know they ditched the dumbo mirrors that year...

The term "dumbo mirrors" is misused and confused time and time again. They called the 3 legged "dumbo" mirrors Below Eyeline Mirrors. In 1980 the regular "Truck" Mirrors were introduced and also called Below Eyeline mirrors but have the mount hidden under the cover. In 1981 they were also available in white, not just stainless.  PS those round mirrors I assume you are joking. The attached shows the 79 mirror options.

One of those pics (bottom left) is from San Diego, when you could still DRIVE on the beach! Stinkin doo-gooders...well, having said that, there IS one beach left where you can. Fiesta Island. You should see the looks of the above referenced ilk when they see you driving...Shock, disgust, and in your face! till you say calmly, 'hey, it's legal to drive on the beach here'...

I'm not well versed on 'all things correct', so assume these are factory rounds. There is no other bolt pattern on the door.

In fact, when trying to remove, one of the factory threaded plugs started turning in the door skin. Good thing I had planned to restored the door soft parts and had access to tighten.

Well, I just went into the garage where this beast resides, and lo and behold! There are among the patina and greeny paste, 2 holes that have been filled.

They fit the description and location of the two lower pics VZ posted.

VZ, I repent in sackcloth and ashes. You are the man! 

Still curious about how these mirror options were offered and delivered to the buying public.

I better be quick, the generation is moving on...

Someone decided to put them on there definitely not something that was ever offered on these trucks. For 80 you either had the sport mirrors or the 9x6.5 BE mirrors. The sport mirrors look good but honestly they suck for any practical use.
