Ya know, I honestly don't think pulling the fuses is ABSOLUTELY necessary. I just did it just to be sure I followed every bit of the instructions this time. In the future, i'm sure i'll attempt it without pulling the fuses and I'm betting it would work just fine.

As for the radio, you don't want more power being drawn.

Pulling the fuses is like wearing a condom...sure it's easier to not do it...but there's always a chance of an accident!
