Thanks for the suggestions. It's not the seat. I don't think it's the seat belt receptacle, as it happens whether or not the seat belt is fastened, but I could be wrong. I do have a windscreen, but it happens whether or not the windscreen is in place. I'll give the other suggestions a try.

........try one simple thing (before you dismiss it...)

Cut a piece of duct tape about 2" long x 3/16th's wide. Open the door and wrap it around the outer aspect of the hook that the door latch attaches to. Close door - drive.

I had this annoying G-D rattle/squeak on my 01-S that came from "somewhere" from the middle of the driver's door/aft. It drove me nuts, because it was the only rattle/squeak in the whole car! It's gone.

If you need a pic...

I saw the same problem/fix a LONG time ago (over 2 years) on a website. After a bit of searching all I could find was this:

This at least points out the problem and offers a temporary solution. The solution I saw a while back actually fixes it. Perhaps with a bit of luck, I will bump into it again.

I have one from the same area as well. Does yours do it constantly? Mine comes and goes, where I get mine the most is on the interstate around 75 - 78 mph.
