Taking the seats out are a quick process, I took all my seats out except for the drivers seat and it took me longer to find my 14mm wrench than it did to take them out. Two bolts in back of the seat, two nuts in front..then the rear seat pad easily pops out, and the seat back is also two 14mm bolts.. 15 minutes tops.. dont fill your gas tank up all the way either... I think 1 gallon of gas wieghs about 7 lbs (Im not totally posetive) so figure if you lose just 12 gallons that saves you nearly 90 lbs, and every hundred lbs is a tenth of a sec.
