Also, the Bride GIAS LowMax's I just picked up look like they're 42.2 lbs each fully assembled including the 370Z-specific adjustable (front-back sliding) rails, which is way off of the weight listed on the first post, not sure where that came from.

The seat listings were just for the seat, because the rails/frame can be mixed & matched creating different weights for aftermarket Brides.
Bride seats are light but the rails can be 20-30lbs alone which sucks.
