    Im sure others of you have or have had this problem so I want to know what you all did to get the lights to stop causing static when your listening to music. I tried searching for a thread here but didn't find one. I have bought the slim HID ballasts for mine and that helped a lot but I want to know how to get most if not all static to go away. I heard that if your wrap your ballasts in tin foil or if you put ferrite clips on the ballast wires that it will help a lot? Is any of that true or is there better methods to stop the static?
    Thanks for your help, Mike

    I thought it was weird to but I my car to a few places that sell/install HID's by where I live and they said it has something to do with our antenna's being inside the car.
