  But you're still left with brass glued to plastic.  The steps, themselves, as 
an individual entity, might be less fragile than the stock plastic steps, but 
you're still left with a weak connection between the brass steps and the 
plastic shell (nevermind the fact that brass can also be bent and broken under 
the SAME abnormal handling methods as plastic can) (brass is NOT bulletproof 
(or clumsy proof or stupid proof)).  So what do you do to ensure the brass 
doesn't separate from the shell?  Is there some special glue that does this 
trick well?

    One way to make sure they all match perfectly is to cut off all of the 
plastic steps and replace them all with Rusty's brass steps. Call it 
preventative maintenance since the plastic steps are pretty fragile anyway.
