Default 07 Cloth to Leather Swap

I'm looking to buy some "take-off" leather seats for my 07 Mustang GT I was wondering if any of you have done the swap yourselves, and was wondering if i would even be able to swap them with the side-impact aribags?

I just did it today on my V6. Didn't have side air bags. Wasn't that hard, took about 4 hours start to finish.

Thanks supercruzin, is it as simple as unattaching the cloth and sliding the leather onto the seat or does it require some sealant or something to get the leather to bind to the seat?

Leather is a b!tch to keep up, mine is a few months old already starting to see wrinkles and I treat it every other week [:'(]

Has velcro and hog ring attachments. The rear seats are easy, front seats are more of a pain since you have to take them apart. The top of the front seats of mine came with the foam so all I had to do was slide of the old one and slide on the new one. There's write up on the "Other Site" that goes into detail for the install. PM me and I'll send you the link.

If you have the side airbags just make sure the seat cover are for those type seats.

just saw these... It says they are for the seats with the side airbags, maybe you could snag these at a decent price http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/2005-...em220181670644 good luck
