Never had my driver seat out, but the passenger leather seat did not weigh anything near 80 lbs. More like 25 ish.

My passenger seat weighs around 50lbs. Full leather with the lumbar doo-dads in it.

I just weighed my passenger leather seat out of my 99 TA.
44lbs just for that one. Now the drivers seat is much heavier than that although I haven't weighed it. Just from picking them up when I was putting the new cage in it. I've got all the lumbar and motorized crap in mine.
