I don't think it includes the hardware...I'll try to weigh the whole set-up sometime this week. Either way, it still 'feels' considerably less than the OE seat (it's a PITA to install/remove the seats b/c it's a tight fit through the door and I didn't want to scratch the interior peices)

fabric: cloth
airbags: None
*this is a full race bucket...no extra admenities

bought the harness last year, so I don't remember.

i don't use a harness bar...I cut/drilled an Aluminum "L" peice to fit on the rear mounting side of the seat (where the seat mounts to the floor). ***This is unsafe for any kind of accident*** (there's lots of threads that dicuss this). I only use the harness for autoX, which I feel has such a low probability a crash, that I feel it's safe enough.

to this point, I've been carrying all 4 of my race tires to and from events inside the Z; so the harness bar wouldn't fit. I'm currently 50% done w/ a tire trailer for the Z, so a harness bar is now an option.

so I figure out that I installed the Aluminum brackets backwards...I switched them and it sits about an 1" lower. I fit in the car w/ helmet and fit just fine. (I finnaly found time to take it for a spin last night - lots of fun!)
