Are all 05-09 GT leather buckets the same?

Default Are all 05-09 GT leather buckets the same?

The title line says it all. Are all 05 up leather bucket seats interchangeable? I have an excellent o8 right seat and I am going to look at a few left side seats at a salvage yard. Will all 05-09 seats match?

Default my interior trim code

1st digit of trim code is K
I should add that it doesn't matter if it has an airbag or not but I'd like it to be a power seat

Leather seats with the side airbags are the same from 05-14. We just installed a set of 13's in my friends 07 gt.

Beg to differ....
I have a set of "11 GT leather seats - they don't match. [Stripe down the middle]
They may interchange, but I am trying to match up to an 08 seat.

The designs may differ but the size is the same 5-14. I installed 2011 leather take offs in 06.

You mentioned you don't care about the airbag, but only the 07-09 have the side airbag. So if your are installing into an 07-09, you will want the seat to be airbag compatible so that it doesn't leave your airbag light lit up all the time. You don't really say what your doing, for all I know you may not even be installing to a car at all or putting it into a restomod.

I was wondering about the side airbag deal. Good to know. You are right on, they are for a restomod.

They are all the same, they suck. Your wallet probably has more leather in it than the Mustang. Most of it is Vinyl or "synthetic leather" so you don't feel cheated. Honestly I should have gone for the cloth seats.

Never again am I buying a Ford with Leather, I'll get cloth and take it to get custom leather installed. Out here labor is cheap so I can do the whole interior for around 600 dollars. Full leather front and back.

I had to replace my front ones because they looked like crap and the foam was sagging, plus the lumbar support broke on the driver's side and also offered no support on the track and went with cheap summit racing buckets while I get real race seats.
