I ALSO HAVE THESE ANNOYING RATTLING SOUNDS COMING FROM THE LEFT REAR SLIDER DOOR (PERHAPS ON THE RIGHT SIDE AS WELL) AND I DONT KNOW WHAT IT CAN BE. DOES ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCE THIS AND DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT CAN BE? USUALLY ON ROUGHT TERRAIN.

Are the middle seat belts in their clips -- on the pillars just behind their seat backs?

Regarding the antenna, start at the top of this thread: http://www.msprotege.com/forum/showthread.php?p=4097508#post4097508
Or, look here: http://www.therpmstore.com/product_info.php?cPath=103&products_id=296
I don't know how well it works, but it stands to reason that reception will not be quite as good as the original.

I WORK FOR AN AUTO GROUP IN WHICH WE CARRY CHRYRLER PRODUCTS. WHEN I FIRST GOT MY MZ5 I ALSO THOUGHT THE OEM ANTENNA WAS A BIT LONG AND R/C, GOOFY LOOKING. SO I TESTED AN ANTENNA FROM A 2009 DODGE JOURNEY HERE IN OUR LOT, WHICH HAS A STUBBIE 6" LONG THING AND TO MY SURPRISE IT SCREWED IN PERFECTLY AND EVEN PERFECTLY ALIGNED AT THE BASE, IT SEEMED LIKE THIS DODGE ANTENNA WAS SPECIFICALLY MADE FOR OUR MZ5s. ANYWAY I PICKED ONE UP FROM OUR PARTS DEPARTMENT AND I COULDN'T BE HAPPIER. IT LOOKS WAY BETTER AND SPORTY, PLUS IT IS STILL AN RDS ANTENNA (ADDITIONAL WIRE THAT TWIST AROUND THE MAST) SO YOU WILL NOT LOOSE ANY RECEPTION QUALITY.TOTAL COST $5.94 INCLUDING TAX. YES YOU HEARD RIGHT $5.94 INCLUDING TAX. I WAS AWED WHEN I HEARD THE PRICE. BEST $6 EVER SPENT ON A MOD. FOR MY MZ5.
IF ANYONE IS INTERESTED THE PART NUMBER FOR THIS ANTENNA WHICH YOU CAN PICK UP AT ANY LOCAL CHRYSLER, JEEP, DODGE DEALERSHIP IS: 5064710-AA
DON'T LET THE STEALERSHIP GET YOU CHRYSLER'S MSRP IS ONLY $5.50

Nice suggestion for the antenna.
So far, the only thing that's rattled for me is the seat belts. Let the rest of us know what you find.

vg33e power,
Thank you so much for the idea of replacing your horrible OEM antenna on your Mazda 5 with the Dodge Journey antenna. I just picked mine up today and it works perfectly!! I paid $5.83 with tax and it looks soooo much better!
Great work!
