I don't know exactly (haven't gotten the new ones in the car yet) but from what everyone says they sit a lot lower.

I'm going to guess my little bathroom scale maxes out at 300 lbs. I weighed ~237, with the passenger side it was at ~298, and with the driver's side it just says E. It's noticeably heavier though.

Manual MKIV seats > electric leather MKIV seats. I was sliding around on my supra since they hold you as effectively as bar stools

Supra seats are one of my favorite mods out of all the things I have done to my car. The weight savings is incredible, as is the lower seating position and the difference in side bolsters between the two. Its a win-win!

I've seen them on, but I'm not sure if it was a direct swap. You can always make them fit if you want them that bad.
