Brian,
No, I didn't weigh them. However, you could very easily do this. I would do it for you but my scale is a digital one and resets before it weighs things, tough to way an object on it. Also, that broken bolt won't come out without some encouragement.
To remove your seat, take the 5 bolts out and unplug the electrical connector under the front. Takes about 3 mins.
Don't break your back.

Headrest are Headrest
They came out looking like stock. No need for fanfare..
I did want to adjust them better, but will wait till I do a little modification first.....

PCMW,
Did the wrinkles eventually just "work themselves out"? I'm having some wrinkling while installing right now. Eric from leatherseats.com told me that there is usually some wrinkling but that sun/heat will help in smoothing them out. Your input will be greatly appreciated.

Guys, can you tell me which parts of each seat are leather, and which parts are vinyl?
A guy over here inquired with leatherseats.com and they told him which parts were vinyl, and for an extra few hundred, the whole lot could be leather or something... our Soarer seats are, I think, totally leather (but old and hard now....). Can you tell me how much you paid and which option you got? (total leather or leather and vinyl)..
Thanks

usually the centers (where you *** and your back touch) are leather, and the rest is vinyl...there are ALL leather kits too...
I actually have a deal on a Katzkins kit (which is full leather up front and leather/vinyl on back, but they have a full leather rear option also)...I'm currently talking to Ethan about the possiblilty of a group buy...
The price is quite good...

What is the current price for the wheel? I followed the link to the post, but I must be blind.
What are the chances of getting a loaner wheel?

It's in the thread....
4-spoke is $380 + $12 shipping. NO LOANERS. However, there is a swap program but the cost is around $510 + shipping + $300 deposit that will be returned once your stock wheel is sent back. Email me at gs430@mac.com if you're interested.
PLEASE DO NOT POST ANY MORE QUESTIONS REGARDING THE STEERING WHEEL GROUP BUY IN THIS THREAD. Thanks!
