    Don't know but much, but way more then my cobra race seats. I lowered my drivers seat and couldn't believe how much it weighed.

    damn now you make me feel each seat is a ton lol! I am also surprised given they are manual seats yet still sound super heavy! btw how did you deal with the air bag light?

    No airbag light. They give you a thin piece of metal with adhesive to place on the sensor.

    Which Cobra seats did you install? And who is "they" when you say "They give you a thin piece of metal with adhesive to place on the sensor"?

    Sorry I wasn't very clear. Cobra seats are out of a different car. "They" are viper parts USA who I got the lowering bracket from.

    It's 36.1 lbs. The lighter ACR battery weighs 24.3 lbs.
    What are you trying to do? Building a race car? I've got my '13 down to about 3000 lbs even.

    Does the TA seat weight the same as the ACR seat? Sorry if this has been discussed already just curious. Very comfy seats for what they are thats for sure!

    well acr is already a race car! i just like the idea of sensible weight shedding it's addictive! saving fuel is always good lol!

    btw did your seats go in w/o any mods needed?

    Driver weight is easiest weight shedding �� Go on a diet and that will drop the curb weight

    How much lighter is the ACR over the TA?

    I'd almost wager that it weighs more.

    My bone stock ACR was about 120 lbs heavier than my bone stock '13. The ACR wheels/tires are extremely heavy, the aero is heavy. Just the strake extensions alone weigh a ton I couldn't believe it the first time I picked up the duffle bag they came in
    So yeah, the ACR is heavier than a TA.
