I assume by your screen name you have a 98. This is good because you do not have an engine cover to deal with. In this case, yet it fits. bluelex and LXOGOOD are two I can think of off the top of my head that has the RMM STB on their GS300.

Go for it.

I can't tell 100% by the pic but it looks like the RVM one. RMM does not make a rear STB.

They are OK I guess and relatively inexpensive. There were a few members here who got the front ones and seemed to like them enough. The problem was that the eBay vendor selling them was unreliable and he could not get the item so interest in the product kind of went away.
