These covers aren't intended for easy removal just whenever you're heading to the gym. I don't know about the GS400, but with my Silverado I'd say it was somewhere around a 1.5 hour installation all in all. The headrests have to be removed, the seat belt (which in newer model GM vehicles runs through the seat itself) had to be disconnected, and realistically it would have been a better job if I'd just pulled the actual seats out of the truck.

In other words... these covers are intended to stay in once you put them in.

But at the same time that's how they make them fit so tightly and so uniformly... by making it a tight-fitting time-consuming installation, they also make them indiscernable from a true neoprene seat.

Well, I'm willing to give Wet Okole a try when they make the covers for the GS. I've got the perforated leather which seems to wear faster than the standard leather. I'm planning on keeping the GS forever (or until I get major problems recurring), so if it will help keep the seats protected and looking good, I'm all for it!
