    Ok so i need some new bulbs and ddm tuning has caught my eye recently, but I've read that hids will interfere with a cb. I was wondering if anyone has a set of ddm hids with a cb in their truck, and does radio function properly with hids?

    I have a set of HID's from the Retrofitsource, Denso balasts and my CB works alright... I have had issues, but they've always been the other person's radio...

    I never heard that HID's will interfear with CB's... so haven't tested it out...

    Just a bunch of old crap
    If you're wiring your CB power to your headlights for some reason, I guess you'd have an issue LOL

    I think you're fine, bro. Anything with audio can have a ground loop that causes some audible interference. Just make sure your CB has a strong ground to the body of your vehicle and you'll be fine.

    Now, about those muffler bearings...
