looks like we found the same thing,,,i found my info on lt1engine.com

29 lbs - Rear seats[quote]

This sounds really heavy for the rear seats? I'm thinking maybe 10lbs tops!

[96LT1SS]

What is the t-top hump ?

i agree. the rear seats don't weight anything. the 2 bottoms are maybe a pound and the back isn't much.

[RumbleZ]

My rear seatback (cloth) with the attached shoulder belts came in at 22.6. The rear seat bottoms were 6.5 for the pair. I weighed the hardware and belt receivers with a few other little things so I don't have an exact on those, but I would guess another ~1.5-2 pounds for that stuff. So in total with belts and all you're looking at somewhere right around 30-31 pounds.

[CamaroRacing12]

i should be cutting at the very least 150lbs
