Sparco seat mount vs Buddy Club - which is lighter?

Well, I just went through this for my STX prepped FRS. Trying to find out which one was the best light weight option. You may (or maybe not :o ) be surprised at the results!

Thanks for the video.
Which mount sits lower?
Which mount is more centered? Stock, the seat is to the left slightly.

I think the Buddy Club sits a tad lower. You could run without the sliders on the Sparco setup and probably sit even lower than that.

The Sparco seemed like it was more centered. I had to move the Buddy Club all the way to the right in the mounts to get it centered. Which, is still a tad off to the left, but it is fine.
