No special Arntz versions and they are both standard pommy source.
The most common 7" headlight trim ring used is the standard MGB/TD/TF/MINI/JAG versions and this fits most replicas. However, there is another called the cobra trim ring. It is off some Pommy some thing or other. Maybe Healey (not sure).
Both types are for the standard 7" light but the cobra trim is too large in it's widest dimention. That's the part that lines up against the body.

The Arntz I suspect uses the actual cobra trim ring at 8 3/8 OD.
