Well the car is getting the hood and front bumper repainted right now, when it's done I'll take the radio out and see if I can find any offending wires. If I discover that the radio itself is bad I'll send you a message.

just got my car back from paint. It doesn't appear to have those holes on it. I did a quick google search, and it says I will have to remove some dash pieces. Super.

here's a video showing how to do it. Narrated with a soothing Barry White voice. haha

Didn't find any wires that looked out of place. Everything was plugged in firmly, I unplugged everything and replugged it for good measure though. How do I test the radio itself?

Well I messed with the fuse box some. As soon as I touched the fuse box I heard the radio make some noise. Sure enough it worked fine after that. I haven't been over any bumpy roads since then. I did pull the radio fuse and it looked fine.

I'm so glad to have my car back though. I've only been driving a manual for a couple weeks now, but I don't think I'll be going back. Driving my fiance's 4-banger auto nissan for 3 days was torture. haha
