The only way you're getting audio out of a high power XTL with an O3 is through the DB25 on the front. So in order to ditch the accessory cable, he'll need to build a DB25 interface to the molex.

Open mouth, insert foot... didn't see the 110W high-power part.
On a related note, can you program a radio through the O3 accessory cable? I never got around to trying it when I had one installed.

I have made them before. At a minimum you need to bring out the two audio pins (24- 25+) and I would highly suggest the ignition input (pin 16) wire as well.
