Ah the dreaded ground noise. Best bet is to reground the deck to the firewall or the kick. Also if he is running an amp for his speakers he should be checking the resistance on the ground to be sure that its actually good.

Do a search for "Ground Loop" and you will find more than enough info for this problem.
