Let me clarify . The center of gravity I was referring to is in the transverse plane ( up, down ) . All of the mentioned weight removal is below the window line , thus making a top heavy car . A top heavy car with a large cross section on a windy , icy day will not be safe . When considering weight reduction all three planes( coronal , sagital , and transverse) must be taken into consideration .

Also I meant to remove pass. seat . So if you have no pass. seat ...no pass. airbags are needed . I don't know about legality , but I do now that I've never heard of anyone asking to see the airbags when being pulled over .

Thanks for the battery tip
