Default LED tail light radio interferance

I've never heard of LEDs causing that to happen.

Pages of problems on Google. Every make of car. Not just Vette's. No real solutions except to go back to stock bulbs.

I haven't either. I've had them for 6 years and never had an interference issue.

I hadn't heard of it either. The more I look, the more I see trouble. Industry has trouble. Boats have the same issues after converting to LEDs. I installed the latest and greatest LEDs. Perhaps your 6 year old LEDs are different? Ive read LEDs emitt RF.
