Rob,
It's probably not the LVDS signals themselves. I suspect your clock is
getting out by another route. Check your board layout for standards EMC good
practices. You'll probably find the clock has coupled to something else.

Rob,
I have a bit of experience with this type of thing in automobiles. LVDS is
definitely a great way to go. If the emission issues involve the FM radio then
the emission levels are quite low. With this I have seen issues with common
mode voltage (on an IC die) on camera boards causing CM

I don't know of a direct cross reference
A major difference between equipment used in a ground vehicle vs. that used in
a home or office is the presence of a metallic ground plane. That ground
plane dramatically changes rf emissions and susceptibility, and it can of
course act as an intentional current return path.
That said, there is
