HID's and radio noise.

Vanquish

I installed some HID's into my XJ and now whenever I turn on my lights, there is a massive amount of noise on the radio (not CD or AUX, just FM.)

I know that ballasts switch DC to AC and AC is incredibly dirty. I have a noise filter on the power supply to my radio but that didnt do anything. I was just going to ground my radio to the body, instead of the wiring harness, and hope that would fix it. Before I go and start fiddling with stuff I figured I'd get some input. I also thought about grounding the ballasts to the body, instead of the wiring harness also.

Any input anyone?
