Clicking noise/radio gremlins

Hello all,
Got a '99 9-3 base 5-door. When going down a less than perfectly smooth road (they're ALL like that here in New Orleans!) I'm hearing 'click-clack' noise coming from the front passenger side area. It's very consistent when going over bumps in the road. No popping when turning or anything like that, just this clicking sound. Bad strut mounts? Tie rod end? Wheel bearing?
Also, I've got some major radio gremlins. Specifically, the radio will randomly tune to an FM frequency, only play out of one random speaker, the controls cease to function, and the radio won't turn off even after the car has been turned off. So far, the only reset remedy is to remove the positive battery cable for approx 30 seconds. However, the problem will reappear again, completely at random. Sometimes, it won't crop back up for two days, sometimes it comes back up every 5 minutes.
Thanks in advance for any advice that can be offered.
