I have to keep the A/C. It's brutal down here in the summertime. I'll be searching for some seats on CL now though. I think I read somewhere that the seats are 60lbs each. After seeing how much I didn't lose, I think I want to go farther. I'm also thinking about changing my mind about the stereo. I was all gung ho about the stereo just a few hours ago but that would also be another way to lose easy weight. You guys also have me thinking about loosing the airbags too. Right now the deciding factor is if I can make some RSR looking door panels that look like something the factory would build. I think I can but need to go look back at Vlad's build for inspiration. Here's some weight of parts I weighed today.
Leather door panel=7.5lbs
door speaker with the big sound box=4.1
door airbag=2.7
stock muffler=33bs
Dansk muffler=30lbs
I've been holding onto the dansk for a long time but decided to get rid of it because it's not that much lighter or louder than the stock muffler.
I'm pretty sure I can make something lighter and there's all kind of room back there to experiment.
