dude its weight REDUCTION, not weight addition. not only will you be adding weight from the parts for the seats, the very humans you plan to seat back there will weigh your **** down a lot. think about it rx7 = 2700 (appro) unladen. 2 guys in the back seat plus front seat and you just added at least 350 lbs, around 15% weight addition!



jeezus! makes me cringe to think of all the pains of weight reduction i go thru, (I TOOK OUT MY AC) and all you want to do is add more.



rethink it dude, if you want more seats, buy a civic, but leave the rex alone.

Small children can fit back there, but that's about it.
