Yes, along with all of the plastic interior panels in the back half of the car (but not the headliner). I like it!!

I do sometimes for certain race events. Yeah I know the rear top and bottom only weight like 30lbs at most, but in my case it componsates for the extra weight I have from my 0g stereo wires and amp rack case. So in turn it kinda balances the weight slightly so that I can at least match my stock weight.

137 has no interior and figured he would put tweed in place of it... lol not really... when im not lazy ill take measurements and cut out aluminum sheet panels and powdercoat them black and fit them to the inside of the car to make up for missing interior and also to compliment the rollcage which will just sit nakedly in the car, but then again.

This might weight more than I would like it too so I havent made amence to do so, since I like the throttle response and the go im getting from having a nekkid *** interior

I took them out cause, I have been getting marks on them from my hockey sticks. Its easier to get my hockey stuff in the car with out the seats. And so I dont have to give people rides too.

I weighed the back seats and I came up with 15 lbs max. 20lbs if you include the trunk cover.

It's pointless for a street/daily driver that occasionally sees track time. Once you take 'em out, it doesn't fit like it used to for some reason.

Yeah, I mean it goes back as it should, but sometimes it's pain in the *** to line up the seats. All I'm saying is it's more of a hassle on a daily driver.

Mine are out..and so is my passanger seat

The rear seat weighs 28 LBS and the front seat is 30 LBS...this is on a Civic though.
Road noise is alot louder...its amazing how much the rear seat helps keep the noise down.

And they go back in very easy...but of course I dont bolt them back in..just kinda prop them up
