Why do these seat covers not fit 07-09 Mustangs?

I don't know how to post the exact link, but they are listed on this site under takeoff parts and then interior.

http://www.magsdadstudios.com/portfo...stangtakeoffs/

It says "seat cover 05-06 coupe, complete kit w/o side airbags." I have an '07 GT with cloth interior and no side air bags. Why won't these fit my car? I thought the seats and seat covers were the same from 05-09?

If you have '07 seats **without airbags**, they will be fine.

They have to not list the '07 because of the iffy nature of whether you have them or not. They'd just rather not deal with any aftermath, so they say only 05-06. If you know what's going on, then get them.

/But, I DID NOT TELL YOU TO DO THAT. I merely suggest you know what you are doing, I hold no liability for your exploded shoulder issues, got it?!

The only difference I'm aware of is the side airbags. You car either has them, or it doesn't. They didn't become standard until 2008.

if your 07 doesnt have the bags it should be fine. i put 07 takeoffs that didnt have the bags into my 05 years ago. the only other difference might be that the holes in the seats might be different for power seats. my basic doesnt have power, but i dont recall having any issues with the covers i got. the plastic side panels cover all that up anyway. i had tan cloth so it was the best thing i ever did to my car for the interior

around 100,000 i replaced the bottom foam on the drivers side as it was getting weak looking on that outside edge. depending on your mileage, it would be a good time to do that. i got the foam from tousley ford online, was around $70
