Eureka! For those of you following this thread, I've pinpointed the culprit of my parasitic battery drain -- the Radio/MID.

With Fuse 75 re-installed -- when I disconnected the Radio/MID with the car asleep, the reading dropped from .14 amp to .02 amp.

Needless to say, I'm going to have a conversation with the two shops that couldn't locate the problem, especially the one that was 90% sure it was the Instrument Cluster. Fortunately, I only spent $115 on their diagnostic and didn't go any further.

Thanks to all who chimed-in with ideas and advice!
