depends on the car... like for example, maxmood suggested the spare tire, while this specific weight reduction doesnt apply on a corvette cuz it doesnt have a spare tire :p
tell us whats the car, and we'll tell u what to remove :naughty:

Well I'm not that Knowledgeable but I would think getting rid of Spare Tire + Tools and Fire extinguisher is the first thing to do. Next would be the Seats and Switching whatever you can to Carbon Fiber.

i am light enough :p
i think the best things are :
Brakes
Suspension
Seats
Airbags
Spare Tire + Jack
coz they are heavy (factory stock) and aftermarket = lighter and better performance
any idea for things that can be removed WITHOUT ruining the daily drive concept ? :p

I'd install more mods if I want it for a daily drive, stock with removing almost anything that makes weight like brakes? suspension? seats? airbags? no need .. just fix mods :p
