Default Need some weight estamates
I am buying a set of seats (front and rear) for my 1993 90. I need to know if anyone can tell me what the weight of the two front seats is (balpark is cool) also if anyone knows what the 3 pieces that make up the back seat weigh (the 60/40 seat backs and the seat). I need all this info so I can get a shipping quote. thanks in advance 4 all your help everyone.

Default rear seats will be lite! prolly no more than 30-40lbs combined...
the seat itself is nothing but foam wrapped in leather, with a bit of cross-bracing. The folding backs is where the weight is, but by the fact that they're easy to fold up & down I say they're no more than 10-15lbs each.

as for the fronts, I have NO idea. prolly again, 30-40lbs.

check yah later

Default Power or manual adjust front seats? Largish weight difference for the two versions.
Manual adjusts are probably in the 40lb range, elec adjust easily adds 20lbs to that.

15/20 lbs MAX. Front seats are about 40 lbs for non power seats and around 70 lbs for the powered variety.

An individual powered seat weighs in around 70 lbs. An individual manual seat weighs in at around 40 lbs. Someone slap me silly if I'm wrong.

It's been a while since I've picked up one of my power seats or base. 20lbs is on the light side, 30lbs is on the heavy side...

Default how does everyone feel about these weights?
I just want to confirm, individual powered seat weighs in around 70 lbs. An individual manual seat weighs in at around 40 lbs. (frons seats) Does this sound about right to everyone?
