Can anyone help me with removing the back seat of a 93? Has anyone done it and weighed the total back seat?

Thanks a ton.

Oh sorry I didn't know this forum was so big

. Does anyone know how much the back seats weight? I was going to remove for mpg and acceleration but I don't know if it's worth the noise.

If you've never taken it out, just do it. There are no bolts or screws to undo, just pull up at the two clips in front and it's out. Maybe 5 seconds worth of work.

But the big thing is that with that seat out you gain a ton of storage room since the back seats then fold down into where the base was. Try it, you'll see what I mean. It takes a little longer to put the cushion back, maybe 15 seconds, because you have to make sure that the seat belts are on top as you are putting it back.

Since my family is rarely in the Camry - it's my commuter car / hauling car, I normally keep the back seat in the garage.

uuuh...the back seat doesnt JUST consist of the bottom...the back seat is the WHOLE thing. Im sure he wasnt just going to remove just the bottom....that would be even MORE pointless. And there ARE bolts to take the back seat out..just not the bottom part.

The back of the back seat in my '95 Camry LE (sedan) folds down.

I pull up the base cushion like I said above (two clips), then fold down the back of the back seat - it lays exactly where the base used to be.

Now that I re-read it, yeah, he's talking about the whole back seat. It would open up a lot of space but wouldn't save that much in weight.

I weighed my entire rear seat setup over a year ago, and I think it was around 35lbs, but not sure. It will cause a LOT more nouse. Your front Passenger seat weighs 2x or more what the rear seat setup does.
