Question GT3 seat vs. Sport Seat weight

Does anyone know how much weight can be saved by replacing the stock GT2 (sport seats) with the GT3 seats?

Thanks!

I thought that I had written it down when I changed mine, but I can't find my notes. Regardless, I believe it to be about 15 pounds per seat, possibly more.

the seats themselves differ in weight more than that I believe, but with the bracketry and sliders that is needed to mount them I think comes out a 50lb weight savings

Ready to bolt in there is about a 20 lb difference, GT3 seat 25 lb, Sport seat 45 lb and full electric seat 65 lb.
