24lbs sounds like a stretch. It's a good idea but this specific one doesn't look as good as other ones i've seen on different cars.

The other ones I was looking at were for other cars. The ones offered for f-bodys are kinda just meh. I think the best option is custom but that's just my personal opinion.

nothing back there at all looks way better than any rear seat delete kit i've seen. Plus removing the rear seat to put something in its place defeats the purpose imo.

If you are going to delete the seat to save weight, don't but weight back into the car by adding compartments. Fu'king pointless if you ask me, looks fine without seats or just leave the buckets. All the weight is in the seatbelt assemblies and upper seat panel.

looks similar to 6le ones.

My rear seat delete is the rear support folded down to cover the buckets.

Agreed that the rear seat deletes are pointless. Unless you want your backseat to look like the floor of a fishing boat.
