6th gen seat weight VS 7th gen seat - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #50193 5 posts Started by dutchboy
Anybody weigh the stock seats and 7th gen seats before swapping? Looking for ways to do weight reduction without stripping the interior, and DOT approved racing seats are not an option.

Also, does anyone know if 7th gens came with tan interiors at all? All I have ever seen is gray and black.

Thanks!
nope to the tan question. your not gonna notice any weight difference from switching to 7gc seats

The UK 7Gc seats I have are much heavier than my JDM 6gc seats - must be all those airbags rolleyes.gif
i had a set of north american 7th gen seats b4 and they weighed maybe 4 or 5 pounds more then stock 6th gen seats. If you wanna get a set of decent dot approved seats for cheap though, go with a set of recaros out of a ITR. They go for around $800 here
my 7th gen seats seemed a little lighter, if you really really really want me too, I'll weigh em when I get home in the morning. either way the diff will be almost nothing.
