The one-piece rear seat weighed as follows:
Rear Bottom - 11.0
Rear Bottom Support - 6.0
Parcel Shelf - 1.5
Rear Back - 36.5
Belts (all) - 7.5
Total - 62.5
Stock steel wheels weigh around 19 pounds each. Replacing them with readily available 12 pound alloys saves a total of 28 pounds (and it's rotating mass, which really helps acceleration and braking... and unsprung weight, which helps ride quality and handling over rough surfaces).
