A guy on ebay has a pile of headlight surrounds, although they are for the 8" rounds which are very hard to get.
Another guy on Turbobricks called 'Redwood Chair' is selling a set of 7" round surrounds, I think he's looking $55 + p&p to the UK.

They're actually 7.5" rounds which makes them bigger than the average round headlights found on other cars.

Thus just means they're annoyingly rare!!

I believe the Americans got 7" and the European market got 8". The surrounds I just got for my motor from ebay measure 8 1/4" diameter so I suppose they need to be at least 8". But yes you are right, they are very hard to find.
