As soon as I finish with the custom antenna mounts, I will be installing mine, and was not looking forward to running wires directly to the battery for ground and B+. So, if no one is having noise issues using inside the I/P or kick panel wiring, I can save some time, and tap into a RAP circuit inside the kick panel.
One more question. Is a satellite speaker required, or is the sound volume and quality ok through the microphone unit?

I don't have the 75WSXT installed, but I've used by a handheld (via the cigarette lighter) and a smaller cobra (can't remember the model number) hardwired to an available power wire under the dash (driver's side, to the right of the steering column). Never had any problems with interference as of yet...
