Did you design the accessories 12V plug in the glove box to perfectly fit into the sound tube entry in the fire wall or is it just a coincidence that it fits exactly?
Kind regards
Paul"

His reply - "I did it!"
He must have misunderstood your question since the receptacle plug is the same size all makes have used for decades.
I am sure he thought you said "Did you design the tube so the plug will fit it?".
