Meant to ask, the 3M's LED inserts seem to cause some sort of electrical noise (the distorting noise, not the audio noise) that causes the radio 10 feet from it to get staticy, most noticeably when the Yellow insert is lit. Is this a known issue, is there a fix apart from using the bulbs, and is it a problem for anything else? The speakers run fine when they're playing from my iPod, it's just the radio that gets distorted.

I don't think you'll find a good fix for this. Typically the distance between the vehicle heads and the vehicles themselves tends to minimize that effect. Are you hearing it on AM and FM radio or just one or the other? I have also noticed some radios are noisier than others. I don't think much of that noise as I have a garage full of electro-mechanical controllers which cause all sorts of radio noise havoc, even on FM, but at this point I've gotten used to it out there. :grin:
