Yep interference from the led's on the light bar.

No issues with mine and I have 2 Chinese light bars and 4 hid spotties. It depends how well shielded they are. Do you get interference on am and fm?

If you have LEDs for bullbar indicators they may be causing the same problem as the light bar...

me too, just with the light bar on AM... plus alot of engine noise through my amp too...

Normally engine noise is caused by bad earthing. It wouldn't hurt to add an earth strap or 2 between the body and chassis. Clean both contact points back to bare metal and repaint afterwards to prevent rust.

That may also help with the interference from the light bar.

I haven't tried on am but FM defiantly does. The indicators are just the factory ones. Apparently you can get a radio interference silencer that plugs in the back of the radio so I might look into that
