Re: battery drain,

.02-.03 after around 20 minutes is fine. That's when the BCM typically goes to sleep.

The BCM should tell the radio to sleep as soon as the key is off and the Driver door is opened. Half an amp to the radio after the door is opened would make me look at the door latch switches.

You need to look at what the TBC fuse feeds and track that down too. 1/10th of an amp will kill the battery overnight.
