I take it you have a convertible. If so they weigh more not less than a 
hardtop or sedan. They have to compensate for the lack of upper support 
by beefing up the underside.

Also I personally avoid ebay. I just don't trust the sellers. Whether 
they intentionally misrepresent or just don't know enough about the item 
doesn't matter. But I want to be sure what I get is what I want.
