Ford Mustang (Fifth Gen) Bucket Seat Guide
The Ford Mustang story (05-14)...
The fifth-generation Ford Mustang, known internally as the S197, was produced from 2005 to 2014. This generation marked a major redesign inspired by the classic Mustangs of the late 1960s, introducing the “retro-future” styling that brought the model back to its heritage roots. Built on an all-new platform, it offered improved handling, a stiffer chassis, and a much more refined interior compared to the outgoing model. The S197 era also saw the return of high-performance variants like the Shelby GT500 and Boss 302, helping re-establish the Mustang as a leading American muscle car.
Once you start using your Ford Mustang for fast road and track use, you’ll soon realize just how much you need new bucket seats to provide more support.
On cornering, you may find your self holding onto the steering wheel tighter than usual, tensing your thighs and legs against the central console and/or door card. You’ll probably find your weight shifting in the seat and having to re-position your self after the corner.
None of this is correct. Your seat should provide the right level of support so that you can grip the steering wheel only for steering, your legs should be supported, and your weight shouldn’t shift around. The recommendations we provide are to ensure that you feel comfortable and supported, allowing you to focus on the job at hand.
We’ve worked closely with our customers to create our Ford Mustang seat guide.
The resulting recommendations are based on previous customer car installations.
Recommended brackets: (Bucket seats)
We recommend using Planted Technology and OMP frames to successfully install the side-mounted bucket seats we suggest in our guide, as the frame will fit any seat and fitting equipment we have suggested below.
Option 1: Bucket seat – Sparco Side Mounts – Sparco Sliding runner – Planted Technology / OMP Fitting Frame – Vehicle
