My old ‘80 K10 was a round eye that I converted to square. Love that set up!
 
Added a picture to the first post
 
I have the round eye version on the 79 80 headlight bezel. So really I feel there should be 3 options.
 
Is the panel under the grille the same for both 79 and 80?
 
I never liked the bastard year 1980 model. Just glommed together and showcased the fact GM dropped the ball on the styling refresh that we got a year late in '81. I really feel like the success of the 79 Ford back then led to this thrown together abortion in 1980.

Round eye for the win. '80 is ugly, but it is "one year only" if that means something to you.
