rex:
VWR bonnet is discontinued.

Removed engine cover a long time ago  :smiley: I would also be curious to see if there's also any difference in weight between the OEM exhaust and the Milltek non-res TBE ! Front chairs are extremely heavy also (I would guestimate about 30kg each) !

laurent.d:
GTI rear seat board is more about 5kg

OZ Ultraleggera 8x18 ET 45 are 8.4kg
OEM battery is 17kg
Braille lightweight battery B2015 is 6.8kg
OEM front whishbones are 3.9kg each
TT alloy wishbones are 2.8kg each
Recaro Sporter CS are (clamed) 17kg each
Oem seats are 25/30kg estimated each
