Im assuming its lighter... since the car is almost drag only i figure with the fubar'd PW in there now might as well just make it a roll up.

I read that they aren't lighter. I have no proof though.

The electric windows are lighter...there's not that big lever and pully mechanism in the window...just a little motor....very easy and much lighter.

this has been an ongoing topic and im not sure of the anwser...some switch over to manual and some agree with josey that there is other crap in there that isnt with the electric...personally I'd just stay electric.

I met a guy last year @ N vs S who had done it and said it wasn't any lighter.
