Another HID Radio Interference Question

I recently purchased a 55W H1 Kit for HIDSDirect. It is this one: http://www.hids-direct.co.uk/h1-55w-new-smart-canbus-hid-kit-slim/

I am getting interference on local radio stations to the extent it is un-listenable. However I am picking up Radio 1, Radio 2 etc with very little if any interference. I unplugged one ballast at a time and swapped them over and it seems to the the NS Headlight (RHD Car) that is causing the issue. When its just the OS one connected the Radio is perfect on all stations. Therefore I know it isn't a faulty ballast.

Could this be a poor earth in the NS Headlight? Is the Radio Antennae down that side?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Nope, it's just cheap tat with poor rfi shielding. Nothing you can do with them ballasts other than bin them. Unless you just put up with it.
