    My 20” LED light bar makes my radio reception much worse when it’s on. Only on some of the weaker stations though.

    glad you found the source. Not all LED lights will create the interference as bad as others. It’s the power supply, not the diode itself.

    If you have a 2018 I think you can get hot tails from @memario1214 at Hotshot Offroad. That’s what I would do.
