Does anyone know the weight savings of the new recaro seats? Or suggestions of a good light weight seats for my GT500...? I wanna lighten my car as much as I can with the usual weight reduction...
I'm guessing at least a 40-50 lbs. weight savings by swapping both seats.
very nice but not out for us yet
What do you mean not out for us yet? Iv seen them for sale in the for sale section....

ahh, ok well then i guess from ford in Fairfield cant get them yet
IIRC, the recaros have side airbags in them, right? not to mention, a reclining seat will be much heavier than a fixed back like your corbeaus.My Corbeau FX1 Pros save about 80lbs with only the driver seat installed and about 60lbs with both front seats installed. The Recaros probably weigh considerably more.
I bet they are not cheap, and getting top dollar. I bet it's cheaper to buy top of the line Corbeau aftermarket than the OEM.

Maybe even more considering that you'll be losing the power option in the Drivers.
I say about 30lbs total.......
I'm getting the Recaro Sporster CS and they are 32lbs each without airbags and do not look as bulky.
What brackets did you need for the Recaro CS?
