Clio RS 200 OEM Weight Vs Aftermarket...

[Nur]

I thought it would be a good Idea for us to have a topic on the Clio RS 200’s different weight comparisons between OEM and Aftermarket.

This is mostly for if somebody wants to ''shed'' a few KG's for a track day or even for a permanent reduction.

Please add any additional info you have to the list.

(And please start with either OEM or Aftermarket.)
(And state the brand of the Aftermarket one please.)

And If at all possible please try and post a pic just for verification.
(Not saying anybody lies, but some people want proof)

So hope you enjoy and can use some of it...

Would the gearknob or sun visor really make a performance difference though?

i think every little bit counts

AFAIK, Recaro seats are 5kg per seat heavier than the OEM ones (20 vs 25kg if I remember correctly).

This should help, just use google translate to understand most of it (Italian). Has a detailed description of parts and replacement parts.
