Im wanting to know the stock weight of the OEM front seats. Im planning on installing some light weight seats to drop the weight on my 350. Has anyone done this to there car yet? Tips and Photos would be appreciated.

Im not sure the exact weight but I know that they are pretty heavy haha. I have seen a is250 with some sparco seats in it and I fell in love =D I cant really afford the seats but being able to have the stock seat with the sparco seatbelts would be nice! Do you think you would be able to hook up those type of seatbelts to the stock seat?

I have my stock seats inside my house if you want an actual weight. I swapped mine for Status Racing carbon backed Icon seats. I know combined weight of BOTH racing seats with frames/sliders/brackets is around 50lbs. Stock seats are pretty heavy.

If you could weigh the stock seats I would appreciated it and it would be nice to have on record for anyone else that is interested. How often do you use the slider when you in your car? I was thinking of just fixing mounting the seat to were I like and leavind it.

I use the slider every time i get in and out of the car. The side bolsters on my seats are pretty high, so in order to get in and out and clear the steering wheel, i have to slide it all the way back.

I'll get the weights in the next day or two.
