Default Seats, GT take offs done!

Got my seats done today. I posted more pix on the main board but I know some don't go there.
I got a sweet deal on GT take offs and got a stripe sewn in them to liven them up a lil. Itreally bring out the black in the seat and woke up the interior.
Oh I got silver welt too. I also put a few more in there of the ride!

Not sure knowing Ford, then no! They are perforated so they breath better and when I got the IUP upgrade it came without Leater seats. I just couldn't pass the deal up with the seats so I had to put the silver in....

Thanks BUCK!

Ron it looks great. I had never seen your interior and I really like all of the billet stuff you have in there. And the silver stripe on the seats really sets everything in the interior off nicely.

Did you do the install yourself? And are your seats airbag equipped? I have been meaning to get leather seats, however, to my knowledge, no one has done an install that has the side airbags...

I did most of the install myself, there is a few thread floating around that have the directions, it was easy. BUt you are right about the airbag....I haven't seen it either.
Thanks for the props, I'm happy with the way it worked out.

The seats really look great on your Tungsten Grey car. I also have a Tungsten Grey coupe and was getting ready to order the leather take-off seats. From what I've read about the install the rear seat in easier than the front. Where did you get the take-off leather and what did it cost? They show as $299 at new take-off but I have seen some people who said they bought them for $249.

Thanks a lot man, the pix don't really do justice. Leater is such a great imporvement. Any news on the GT?

@dylan fan- the seats were bought by a guy who already had seats installed and sold them super super cheap. The cheapest I've seen is $280 shipped. PM for the guys info.

Looks awesome man. I really like what you have done with your car. I got mine from New Take off and paid $270 back in January. As far as the side air-bags go, I have seen some take-offs listed on the internet, but I would not do the install myself. I have no problems working with the airbags in the steering wheel and the dash, but the ones in the seats are a bit more techy. I have talked to a couple upholsterers about it, because I wanted to add the steps to my how-to post located here: https://mustangforums.com/m_2501876/tm.htm but they all told me not to mess with them. Couple of them, following Ford's directions, had the side air bags blow! Some shops will not even touch cars with the side airbags.

Like I said before, awesome job man. I like it.
