I have two 4" LEDs mounted to the front bumper. Power comes from the switched side of the the factory power strip under the hood. When they are turned on, the factory radio turns to static. Anyone know of a fix ?

This is the result of electromagnetic interference. Confirm the switch wires do not contact or come in close proximity of the radio antenna. If that doesn't work, add an accessory fuse panel and ground bar that is separate from the radio. Use the factory accessory post as the on lead to a 80Amp relay powering the accessory fuse panel.
I'd suggest as Yooper82 says...install another switched fuse block under the hood. That's what I did. one is hot all the time, the other is switched using the 10 amp accessory wire for the trigger.
That's right. I read that the cheaper lights don't have the filters built in like some of the more expensive ones. The ferrite choke fixed my light bar interference but it took more than one. The good thing is that they're cheap too.
There are different sizes according to what size wire you're using.
