I've recently got a 2010 Mazda 3, but the radio reception is weak. It has a built in antena in back window. is there any way to got a new antena or any amplifier to improve the signal for it.

Thanks,

I guessing the sedan with the antenna in the window...........

But I've heard of a lot of the cars coming of the line do not have the antenna plugged in at the window connection.  I'd look around the rear window for the antenna connection (think it's black) and make sure it's plugged in and secure (not falling off or cracked).

Other than that you could replace antenna with an amplified version - have to call individual stores for pricing as this is most likely a custom order part.

Good luck, and post a fix if you find one

Yes, it's a sedan. I checked the back window and it appears that the connection is firm. I guess the only way to improve is to buy a booster/amplifier for the antenna. DO you know that if the future shop has carry any and what does it call?

future shop does not carry any antenna boosters. But the shops usually have a special order program to get parts that aren't stocked.

you'd have to call your local shop for a quote
