I guess that I was not very clear.

I am talking about a whole new modern headlight/turn signal assembly that replaces the headlight, headlight bucket, turn signal, and bezel
with a one piece projector high/low beam headlight/LED turn signal enclosed in a assembly that fits in the body's headlight/turn signal recess.

And ditto for the taillight, a whole replacement for the entire assembly with LED turn signal, Brake light and backup light.
Also a high center brake light assembly.

These would be designed for the NEW GMC Motorhome and made available to the GMC aftermarket.

What would be an acceptable price for new light assemblies for the GMC aftermarket?

Richard:
Before you spend a lot of time on this......
Used to do these kind of 'cost rollups' all the time.
(1) How many do you figure you could sell?
(2) Using quantity one pricing, how much are the raw materials?
(3) What kind of tooling, if any, what does it cost?
(4) How much time is required to manufacture?
Based on this you can calculate the minimum price you can sell the product for without a company profit. (You need to assign what kind of profit level you need....to stay in business)

After doing the cost rollup, you will be amazed that a GMC motorhome could ever be sold for so little. It truly is the magic of mass production that such high quality products are invented, built and delivered for so little money.

I've been through a dormant vehicle product line restart of production before.
Not to say I know everything but I have done it before successfully.

Thanks for your words of experienced wisdom. :d
