Howdy, I'm fairly new to owning an SN, recently got my hands on a mach 1 after drooling over the new Mach's and decided that I wanted the recaro seats out of the newer stangs. So just out of curiosity, has anybody put the 2015+ mustang recaro seats into the SN, or would it be possible to do. Thanks for your help/advice.

Yes, I've seen photos out there. Anything's possible with time/thought/money/hard work. I've had to make adapters out of aluminum stock whenever an aftermarket seat I liked didn't fit the pattern of the floor pan. It's rather easy once you get into it. Just need to take measurements of both the floor pan mount distances as well as the seat mount distances and marry the two up if they're different.

I have 2020 leather seats in my sn. They aren’t difficult to get put in the car. I’ve got mine installed on the manual SN tracks. If you keep them on the stock s550 power tracks, the seats are way too high. Custom brackets are the only way to do it. Even after I’ve gotten my seats in the car, I’m pretty sure I hate the seating position. In my opinion. It’s too close to the dash and the nose of the seat feels like it’s pointing downward.

Interesting, for the prices I'm considering just going with Corbeau seats instead, especially since corbeau makes rails for the SN.

Planted also makes rails for the SN95 and they are universal to accomodate pretty much any type of seat. They're very solid pieces. Almost used them but someone made me an offer I couldn't refuse to sell them.
