Like I had said in an earlier post Andy, there are usually rubber grommets
on the firewall of most cars and trucks that yo could feed the wiring
through, which removes the need for drilling. Good luck

No kidding. I'm well aware of that. That's how I've been hooking up my radios
for years, but when I move to this other car, I'd prefer not to do that, which
is why I asked if anyone had any experience using the accessory port, not if
anyone has suggestions for wiring up my radio. Thanks for the input though.
