How much weight does the seat delete kit take off?

How much weight can I shed from my mini if I take out the rear seats? Are there any other easy things to remove in an effort to lighten up my car? I want to keep the radio and AC. Thanks!

if you want to save weight then don't put a seat delete panel... might as well keep the bottom cushion in the car then cuz they both weigh around the same. the bottom cushion will fit better... my panel was a bit off on the fit and i ended up scratching my interior panels putting it in place. btw, i think (could be wrong) seeing 36lbs savings for the back and bottom cushions removed

Meh, 36 pounds doesn't seem like its worth it. I think I'll just leave it stock in that case. Thanks very much for the quick reply.
