Talking Just spoke to sparco...

The seats I'm getting only weigh in at 15lbs! The SPARCO revs are great..and they fit our cars great! How much do the stock seats weigh?

I am getting the SPARCO REV seat in w/ the fiberglass base. The seat itself weighs 15lbs..but the base may weigh an extra 1-3lbs. I will be buying just one seat for right now...but I have to get my exhaust finished first(just need to get a catback!) The seats are $520 each plus the base which is like another $20. They are GREAT looking though! I am getting navy blue w/ gray. I will post pics when I get them, which will hopefully be in about a month or so.

Oh good, finally somebody who wants a real FIA-approved racing seat instead of that poser showcar stuff. I'm not sure what the price difference is, but if you really want to save some weight, the CF Rev is a little less than 10 lbs.
