I haven't tried them but I bet the mat for the back seats wouldn't fit over the trans tunnel and same for the trunk because of the lip up under the rear deck.

hmm, supposedly they can be cut to fit. But you’re saying they’re assuming a flat rear?

It looks like it in the pictures on the listing. I would spend the extra money and get something that fits exactly to the car.

Those look like they would fit. I have also seen a GS with mats like this before. There are other listings for this type of mat as well. Brown or gray would probably be good colors since they don't show dirt.
