What do your seats weigh?

Weighed my 1985 Carrera factory sport seats in leather with electric front and rear up and down. Manual tilt and manual fore and aft adjustment. Also includes complete seat sliders and attached seat belt buckle.

Used a digital bathroom scale and it came in at 58 lbs.

I once has a set of Speedster seats that looked like those except they had sliders and included the seat belt mount. With the extra goodies they start to get a bit heavy.

I had them in my C2 Turbo and loved them.

I do
73 double locker sport seats:

Sport Seat 29.00
Base 15.00
Sliders 3.00 (1.5 ea)

Total 47 lbs per seat

The stamped outboard mounting plate adds another 1.5 lbs per side.

They will be roughly the same as the early leather thrones, ~29# w/o sliders

PS I.m looking for some manual seat rails from a 944 or 928, if you have them let me know
