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.
