Howie, was Danger Price played center stage on this show or had it moved to door #2?

Wasn't the bonus worth $500 on the Tom Kennedy version?

You must mean the daytime show, and it was worth $100 on that version until 1998. On Kennedy's show, it was worth $500, which the daytime show now has (with primetime bonuses worth $1000).

On this episode, the bonus was only worth $100. Tom Kennedy even asked the contestant, "When was the last time you saw a $100 bill?" I guess it must have been raised to $500 in the second week, maybe?

Danger Price moved to Door #2 around April.

The $500 Bonus came into effect sometime after Rod became the announcer in February.
