Default Weight of headliner in Camaro

Anybody know the weight of the headliner in a 98 (-02?) Camaro? I don't see it listed in the Weight reduction list.

You are absolutely right. I have worked to take out 1/4 pound in the past.

That headline sure feels thick and appears to be much heavier than even 5 pounds. But if 4thgen weighed it then that must be correct.

Have any of you guys actually weighed it? Some times big items feel lighter than they really are.

When I saw this post I was in the process of taking the interior out of my Silverado to take care of some stuff so I weighed the headliner which is made of the same exact stuff but is from my Extended cab pickup and that weighed just under 6lbs. So there is no way that the headliner in an F-body weighs any more than 3lbs.
