Removing the rear seats and belts along with the front passenger seat is worth about a 75-pound weight reduction, not 100 pounds, as I originally stated.

Although that was a 'ball park' figure, it was a bit optimistic. It's still more than the A/C removal gains but as noted, the A/C is on the front of the car, which is a factor if weight loss and balance are crucial to you.

Sorry for any confusion.
