I’m I crazy or what, but after installed LED lights the am/fm stations don’t work anymore. I only use
Satellite radio, but I would still like have the std radio to work.
Crazy or ?

Reverse what you did and see what happens.

Sometimes when installing an LED bulb kit or an HID bulb kit in your vehicle the result can be better, brighter light, but also a side effect of AM or FM radio interference. ... The solution for your problem might be what is called a ferrite coil, also known as a ferrite bead, a ferrite choke, or an RFI choke. Per Google

Easier said than done, all except rear tail/brake lights , headlights (HID) are LED's.
Temporarily remove the fuses/relays for the headlight/taillights so they don't come on and see if you still have interference?
