That is the most reasonable route. A "core charge" type of model where you get the addition fee waived if you bring in an old one.
Same scheme they use with car batteries and some auto parts. Although, some auto parts have a core charge as part of a dubious ploy to prevent the aftermarket from getting the headlight for duplication.
I'm not doubting you, but like, what r&d firm is gonna go, welp, this $50 core charge is too much for us, guess we won't do it.
I forget what Chevy it was, but they just released a new model and the $2,500 headlight came with a $500 core.
