Yeah, seat backs and the bottom part and the hinged thingy. I realize that it's not much weight (and it's taking it from the rear which throws the weight balance more towards the front), I just thought it was less than that.

Yeah it adds up pretty quick, but it doesn't add up to much. 80lbs is about the equivalent to gaining 5-6hp. I didn't gut the entire thing, I still have all the hatch stuff back there, the spare, sub, etc. With all that out, it's about 120lbs. Definitely not worth it.
