Did you have the Ford dealer rezero the OCS for the pass. seat? If not you better if you want to be sure the pass. airbag works properly.

The company is Classic Soft Trim and we found them on the net by searching for custom interior companies. They have shops all over the US. The one we used is in Merriam, Ks. It cost us under a grand but we dropped a name and they gave us a bit of a break. Don't know what the regular cost would be. They had it done in under 8 hours. The only difference is they were not able to do the door inserts like the one at the car show. They took the door off and found the material on the door was heat sealed at the factory, basically melted into the form, so they couldn't replace it. They contacted the guy that did the Westrenz car and they were told they car has been back in 3 times due to the door trim. They just laid it over the existing trim and tucked it into the crease. As the leather shrunk it pulled out. We are working on how to get the yellow door inserts. You would not believe the difference that makes in the car, the photos are sharp but unless you see it in person..........

Any time a seat cover is removed the OCS MUST BE rezeroed! OCS = Occupant Classifaction System, the pass. seat contains a bladder in the bottom cushion that determines many different things, like child seat (forward facing, rear facing, etc.) whetever a pass. is out of position, below a certain weight, etc. Details beyond what I know. The system is calibarated as an assembly, with the stock cover. Now you have had a new cover installed it many have been installed a little bit tighter or looser and so the calibration is thrown off.
In the 2005 Mustang Shop Manual under OCS there is a procedure for resetting the OCS, do not let the dealer tell you need a new OCS module, just have them rezero the OCS. It can be done very easily with a WDS, and only takes 3 minutes.
