Hi

Does anyone know the standard seat weight for a half leather seat in a mk2 turbo? Considering changing mine but don't want to add weight.

Cheers

Toby

And Mk3 seats fit a treat and weigh loads less

My Recaro Speeds actually weigh just short of 14kg (without any rail) so pretty much the same as standard seats. I don't buy them for weight saving though, i got them because they look damn good

When you say the mk3 seats fit a treat do you mean with zero mods or do they need messing with...

There is a bit of fettling to get them bolted down, but nothing beyone the reach of the average guy. Used the method of using some Angled Ally.....there is a thread on it on teh forum.

Makes it fairly straight forward. Seats IMO are far more comfortable, and a lot more supportive

Just getting interested in weight here...

Obvious question - if mk2 weigh in at 15-20kg what do the mk3 seats weigh?
