Finally Purchased a Jackaroo

Hi,
After allot of searching and allot of advice from you guys here I have finally purchased at 2000 Monterey V6 Auto with 63,000 on the clock. Ended up paying $24,250 for it on the road so I am pretty happy with it all. I am picking it up on friday. I do still need some advice on side steps though, I have been looking at steps and I am thinking about getting some kingsly steps (have been quoted $495 fitted) Does this seem reasonable? Any other suggestions or recomendations on steps would be appreciated. Also I am toying with the idea of replacing he standard clock with the one from the wide track model with the Temp indicator and other bits and pieces. Has anyone else done this? I take it that it would just use a basice thermocouple as the sensor. Any Ideas or suggestions would be appreciated
