Have you guys experienced a noise in your stereo (radio) when you turn on you headlights? I only get it when it is on the radio output not dvd or aux. So i think the fm frequency is somehow interfered by the HID light. I got Clarion Max686bt. Hope someone can help me out here. cheerz

does it make the noise while tuning..
tune up and down seek through stations see if the noise changes varies etc..

if it does most likely some kind of radio issue really REALLY weird for STOCK HID lights.
Unless you two have aftermarket ones?

Na, even with a different station the static noise is still there. Yea i got an aftermarket ones and the stock HID lights were not doing any interference. I tend to switch to Ipod connection when i drive at night solely because of that reason.

Yea the power antennae is connected properly , how to ground the chassis of the head ? Just connect the earth cable to the car chassis?
