aftermarket radio, with a harness kit? oem radio gets ground from antenna, so dont use the ground on the harness kit, gound it to the body. if this is already being done than use the website givin :)

OE radio grounds through the case, not the antenna. Using just the antenna without a chassis ground will introduce noise.
