As I continue to go down the rabbit hole of weight reduction/track-inspired modifications... bucket seats were next up on the list.





Out with the old...



All done!





Surprisingly, the stock seats weigh a massive 59.6 lbs! For comparison, the FX1 Pro and bracket weigh 27.4 lbs. That’s a difference of 32.2 lbs, bringing the total weight loss to 64.4 lbs for the front seats. I’ll take it! I also previously removed the rear seats, which saved about 55 lbs.

Next up; a carbon fiber sunroof delete and carbon fiber door panels!

For more information, read my complete write-up: https://my1series.com/2019/08/05/how...rbeau-fx1-pro/

Wasn't that the guy with the seriously creepy voice who wanted to know where the spoons were kept?

Twenty one minutes for a video on seats in a car. With a click-bait preview. Pass.

Always enjoy your build videos. I live vicariously through you sir. If I had the time and money, I'd be doing the same thing. Thanks for the share! Those seats are nothing short of bad assery.

Haha yup, it's the side-effect of the wide angle lens. Everything at the edges gets distorted.

Couple of Sunday tickets to the first playoff event for the PGA tour taking place this weekend. This year they're playing at the tight Liberty National Golf Course in Jersey City NJ. This is a very picturesque course with views of lower Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty.

Stoked! Can't wait to listen to this!

Fear Inoculum is the long awaited new album from TOOL, and the band's first new album in 13 years. The album will be available digitally, and in a special Limited Edition physical package that includes a CD in a tri-fold Soft Pack Video Brochure featuring a 4" HD rechargeable screen with exclusive video footage, a USB charging cable, a 2 watt speaker and a 36 page insert book and MP3 download card.

Along with all online streaming sources! It's been awesome hearing them in rotation on Pandora, while at the gym. It's like rediscovering their music and realizing again, just how bad ass, of a band, they truly are. If you ever get the opportunity to see them live, DO IT!!! To witness their spot on timing, in person, is something to behold.

They are also masters of the easter egg laying in their albums and how they do things. This particular album is all about the 7's. They are hidden in the new logo along with the album name artwork. The first track was released on the 7th, 7 days prior, they released their entire catalog on digital streaming, the new album has 7 songs.....

Indeed! Although I do like the new song, it still doesn't stand up to anything from Aenema or Lateralus. It's good, and it's Tool flavored, but still not the caged rage from yesteryear. It's almost as if they sampled several of their songs together.....still good nonetheless. Danny's drumwork is nothing short of amazing, as always, but the new song sounds so much like Reflection.

I love Invicible! I saw them at Fort Rock in April. I'm going to get the deluxe cd set.
