well, the JCWhitney distribution center is only about 10 minuites from my house....they have an outlet store and on weekends the have a little spot with all the closeout stuff and returned items....

i havent been down there in a while, but the last time i went, a friend of mine picked up 6 of those same seats and 2 leather ones for a total of $150....we plans on putting 4 of them in his wrangler....

next time i go down there i will see if i can find some more

racing seats are usually lighter, but it depends on the kind. if you really want to get a lighter seat, you need to get a fixed back/non reclining seat

aftermarket reclining seats arent any lighter then stock, my stock seat weighed on an very accurate scale weighed 31 pounds, thats for a 96 coupe

you can get lighter seats but there expensive, the seat im eyeing weighs 15 pounds, but its $2000

the base neon seats are even lighter than the highline or sport seats... you could try a pair of those. They suck for support but are more comfortable than a bucket! hehe
