Have you or anyone thought about sharpie the stitching black or red to blend in instead of white thread?
I haven't thought about it because quite frankly, it hasn't bothered me. I just needed the seats to hold car seats in place and they cover all the stitchings. I do recall someone talking about using a red fabric pen and coloring the threads. I'm not sure if they ever went through with it though.

Used a red fabric pen on mine, turned out pretty good.

Which fabric pen did you use? That red looks good. I have the sharpie fabric pen and it looks a little off from the Ford interior red.

I just wanted to say thank you for making the video I commented a few times on your video but it absolutely was helpful. I referred to it often as I installed my back seats. I had to get the stud kit and a 15mm bolt for the hinge bracket. Just finished tonight. Just wanted to share a few pics. I did order a package tray off eBay as I wanted to preserve the original one without cutting it.

Thatā€™s amazing!!! Iā€™m so glad the video was helpful. I wanted to make it as thorough as possible. The color matched seats look absolutely killer!

The pictures donā€™t do it justice. MPR performance did the upholstery for those that might be interested in matching the front seats.

Looking forward to more content from you.

Can anyone confirm every model year GT350Rs produced had the necessary mounting points? I remember vaguely seeing somewhere that said 2019-2020 GT350Rs no longer can have rear seats mounted due to missing mounting points in the back of the car.

Curiosity here, as this came up in another threadā€¦but have those of you who have added seats to an R looked at the door tag, with the maximum occupancy limitation?

screen grab from the threadā€¦
