I get bad static on AM radio, stock SC300 system. Seems to be some internal electrical interference, lifting up on the window buttons makes it stop temporarily. Anybody have similar problem or suggestion. Thanks.

I have a similar problem. Really bad static on my system. It was bad when I had the stock head unit and didnt improve when i replaced with an aftermarket radio. So i assume its the wiring of the antenna somwhere in the car? Anyway it sucks....if you find a way to improve it, let me know.
