I did some searches (sorry if this is a repost) and could not find the data. Anyone know the mass of the factory unit? I have a weights list for many items that are removeable/replaceable on the MR-S, but strangely the A/C equipment and the audio receiver are missing from that list.
Thanks in advance for the assistance!

Ummm... I dunno about GT4 (never played it) and all... s:wink: :wink: s:wink:
The stock system is not impressive in it's performance, and it looks to have a fair amount of weight. I could live with a lightweight radio-only system for a decent return in weight loss (15+lb). I picked up a harmon-kardon drive+play Sunday for USD70 at a store that was going out of business. I figure since my 8gb nano weighs little, the drive+play is light as heck, and I can store most of what I like on the nano, then why not ditch the extra mass of the stock brickish CD player for something simple and light to connect the drive+play to. Plus the drive+play can be mounted in a better access position than the current system. I ditched the front spare and toolkit (replaced with 2 fix-a-flats, tire-repair slugs, and my roadside assistance coverage) last weekend and will likely gut the front spare-holder and such next weekend. I am trying to drop the curb weight from 2185lb down to below 2000lb if possible. But it's all about the fine details in getting there. Wheels, hood/bonnet, battery, seats, radio, possibly A/C, power-steering, and other items will be eventually ditched in the search of the lightweight tossable vehicle I want my spyder to be. s:) :) s:)
My fiance will get whatever goofy family vehicle she wants next year, so by then I want my spyder to be my "escape-from-reality-and-decompress" machine, since that will be it's only job!
