[Elecraft] prebuilt KPA100 & KDSP2's

Having just finished the build of K2 #6100 with a KSB2 (installed) and 
KNB2 (yet to install), I am looking at my next options.  I plan to add 
a KPA100, KDSP2, and KAT100, and although I am enjoying the build 
process, another way to acquire these (at a potential savings) would be 
prebuilt.   That said, I don't know whether it is in light of the K3 
rage (i.e., selling off K2's to fund K3's), or whether this is normal 
turnover, but I am seeing these optional items come up for sale both 
here and on Ebay.  Nevertheless, I don't know whether a used, prebuilt 
KPA100 or KDSP2 would be of use to me (as is), unless I had the 
modifications to my Control board, etc., and I don't see any upgrade 
kits/parts listed on the Elecraft site for this type of addition.  I am 
guessing that it would be possible to get the needed parts from 
Elecraft (and elsewhere), but wanted to ask.....

What are the issues regarding the addition of such prebuilt options as 
the KPA100 and KDSP2?

Thank you (for this and the great replies to a few of my earlier newbie 
questions!!),

P.S.  I couldn't imagine parting with a beloved K2 (to fund a K3) - why 
not kill two birds with one stone and sell off the XYL ;->
