Weight of motorized driver seat

Anyone know how much my Drivers side seat would weigh?
Its not leather, but it is motorized.
Thanks-

I'm assuming you're asking because (like all of us auto-x'ers) you want to knock off some weight. I don't have an answer for you, but suggest you take a seat out (it's pretty easy) and stand on a bathroom scale with it and without it to find out the weight

since I really didn't answer anything, consider this a free bump

(btw, your OSCAI scares me!)

Yea, I have a pretty good idea of the passenger side. I havent taken out the driver side (has the motors) so I guess what I am really asking is how much do those motors weigh? Hopefully like 10 lbs so when I throw a 15 lb CF seat in there I'll be stoked!

Sounds like you are saying that electric seats are 45 lbs and manual ones are 40?

Only 5 pounds? Sounds like it'll be a better option if I hit the gym and cut back on those burgers and fries.
