The airbags can go for sure if you have a 4 or 5 point harness and some good seats...
You could sell the airbags and pay for it all at the same time...

Does anyone know how much the headliner weighs? Mike (350ZNV), I assume that you must have taken yours out by now? I'm thinking of taking mine out simply because I'm too darn tall and hit my head on it with my helmet on with the stock seats. Of course, that will amplify noise...
I would have thought that the stock carpeting would have weighed as much as the sound deadener as well.

Two points though: First, I had to fabricate a bracket to hold it in place, since the stock hold-down doesn't really work. Second, the stock negative battery cable wouldn't reach the terminal of the new battery (had to buy a longer one at Autozone).
Definitely something that you should look into, Mike, saves LOTS of weight. I'd be happy to show you how I did mine this weekend.
