102507, Weight of Hatch
Posted by ohyeah2, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
I was wondering does anyone know how much the stock hatch weighs? With the glass in and without?

I'd venture to guess somewhere in the 70-90lbs range with the glass. It's more than the hood. I know that much. Only way to know for sure would be to take it off and weigh it.

wasn't it decided that most of the weight is in the glass? I thought a couple people bought the carbon fiber hatches and said that with the glass installed they didn't really cut that much weight.

I could have sworn it was weighed by someone here and the hatch itself was about 45lbs. This was from a discussion regarding the carbon fiber hatch. The way i saw it, the CF one wasnt worth the money unless you have a Lexan rear window.

SOB! I JUST did a search on this on tuners and I can't remember the numbers! EFing senility. Terry is close on the hatch 40 to 45 and the glass was like 30 - 35 believe it or not. Eh, do a quick search on dsmtuners.com and the real numbers are there. Sorry.
