Ok, i have just weighed a p4 Recaro seat at 13kg & a standard 16v seat (the style with the hard plastic headrests & the cloth that is very similar pattern to the p4 recaro) weighed in at 7.5kg.

Hope this helps.

WTF ?!?!?

I just weighed my 16v seat and it's 15,1Kg .

And the Recaro weighed 16,2Kg ...



What kind of seat is that that has only 7,5 Kg ?!?

I would expect them to be the same, may even be lighter than the standard as there seems to be less material on the recaro's.
I bought a light weight bucket seat which was 7.5kg then a second seat (different make) which was 12.5kg.

Hi!

Can anyone tell me how much does a 16v front seat weights?


Everyone is telling me that a recaro one weights almost twice than a regular 16v seat...


The Recaro one weights 16Kgs.


Th 16v regular seat only weights 8Kg ?!?
