Soft top weight

I took mine out recently, they're pretty heavy. I'd estimate about 16-18kg. I can weigh it for you when I get back to Aus if no one else posts the first.

By Mokesta in the CF hardtop thread;

As you can see I took out the soft top. I weighed the soft top and all the brackets/bolts I removed. It was 19 kg total removed. The new top is about 16 kg lighter than the old one so I've taken about 35 kg out of the top of the car.
