    I just weighed my 67 comfort seat without seat base or headrest and it was 34 lbs.
    Buy a $20-25 scale on Amazon. It comes in handy.
    A part isn't purchased until paid.

    The sport seat console and slides by themselves weigh 21.5 lbs (72 single locker). I just pulled my sport seats out to take some selling photos so, this is timely. I'll take some weights and post later today. They've been recovered but, the frames and foam are all original. So, good comparison thread with comfort seats.

    To get off topic briefly, my understanding is that the sport seats out weigh the comforts by a good margin—both in actual weight and the strain on your checkbook.

    Based on this thread, an all-in sport seat weighs approx 58 lbs. https://www.early911sregistry.org/fo...t-weight/page2

    Thanks for weighing the comfort seats. Helps to make me more … comfortable … with my decision to keep my car original.
