    Did you install LED fog lights? If so turn your fog lights off and see how the radio is. If the radio now plays with the fog lights off, call either SpyderPops or Lamont for a solution

    .... this is a common problem with some LED headlights .... I had great radio reception until I switched to LED's ..... they were replaced by the vendor and no further issues ..... Mike

    Does the audio system static sound like this on your Spyder. If so, here's my detailed explanation of what's required to resolve the static if it's the same issue. My first post about this issue goes into further detail of what I've been experiencing only to discover this is quite common on every 2018 model Spyder including some 2019 models, but not all.

    I hope this will help.
