Blacksmoke and Grabberbluegt, thank you for your help. I would love to have katskin seats but they are way outta my price range currently. I am almost to the point where I just wanna ask for my stock seat bottoms back but judging from the dealers help so far those are probably in the bottom of a dumpster somewhere.
Those are not GT leather seats. Is your Mustang just a v6 wearing GT badging?

Might wanna make sure you have a legitimate target before
pulling out your guns bud.

Reaper,
I had no clue the seat inserts for the v6 leather were different then the
GT.

Those seats in the pic just don't look like Mustang inserts by any means
to me. Weird....

If you have not heard anything from the dealership you need
to go face to face with them.
That way you can at least find out if they are going to help you or not.
Get that out of the way.

After that... if they do NOT help you, then you can save your money
towards some Katzkins.
That is what I had to end up doing.
In the long run you will be glad you did too.

Plus if they don't help you and replace them under warranty,
what other choice do you have?

This is why i'm afraid to take my car to a dealership for anything. I do all my own oil changes and maintenance

That leather looks cheap. I have a 2006 GT and the leather looks nothing like that.

Those are definitly 05/09 V6 Seats .. I know because I had one. They came stock in your 2008GT straight from the dealer????? Something ain't right.

EDIT. Never mind ... I see you have a V6 ... that is the correct Leather.

What the hell was the point in your posting this?
Of course it looks cheap if it's sagging.
And like stated before, his is not a GT.

Oh and by the way... all Ford Mustang leather seats
are cheap. Great friggin' post buddy.

I don't know what it takes to be a mechanic in the US but in ontario it is 10,000 hours,six months of school,3 hour exam to get your ticket! and you must have 75% to pass! plus i take course's all the time to keep up with the latest cars! Plus i work on all makes and models off cars and trucks! So if you think anybody and there mother can do it go ahead!
