Default CB External speaker question???

Can you hook up a jack from the external speaker plug in a CB to the AUX jack in the factory radio to monitor the CB?

The external Microphone output from a CB is a high level output (meant to drive it's own speaker), and could potentially screw up the low level aux input on the head unit.

Just a guess though.

Thanks. I think I will just stick with the external speaker. I like the set up in the pics.

On a separate note, what resides behind the two "caps" that are marked "Sway bar" and "Axle Lock" if I dont have those options? I was thinking about mounting a couple of toggle switches there to control fogs and driving lights. Do those caps just pop off?
