May be the radio has a poor earth and is using the earth from the
Ilumennation/back lights to work.
Remove your radio if not to hard and see if it cure your probs,
If it does then gotta be radio instal prob.
Just a thought/ start maybe.

Does sound like an earthing problem, hard to trace, if no luck it might be off to an electrician for you.,:(
