Anyone have these below eyeline mirrors on their K5? What were 71-72 mirror options?

I suspect this below eyeline style was not available on 71-72 K5's - only the little base "sport" mirrors or the big DF2 camper mirrors. I think the sport mirrors are too small and the campers too big - but the below eyeline style shown is just right - I have these on my K10 and K20 trucks.

Mine has them, but I suspect they were installed by the previous owner. There's a little oval symbol with something like Fred in it on them. I like the size of them, but I'm not in love with the way they mount to the door.

Yeah they're literally just screwed onto the door with no backing plates at all. I like the size too and have them on both my K10 and K20. From what I know so far only two mirror options were available on K5s in 71-72: really big or really small.
