As far as installation, if you can change your oil you can do this. Detailed instructions can be found online but all you need are sockets to remove the belly pan, a 14mm socket on a breaker bar to take the tension off the belt, and a 5mm hex key to hold the tensioner in place while you change the belt
Took me about 45 minutes because I triple-checked that the belt was installed properly on all pulleys
I'll be buying this same belt again in 55-60k miles to be on the safe side.

Well he changes the belt with the one from Toyota and it continued to squeal just as badly (possibly worse) when starting it (after the initial squealing it goes away while driving). He calls his contact from Toyota and is told that's a common thing they've heard when changing the serpentine belt and that he basically was at loss of what to try. A google search leads me to the reviewer who had pretty much the same problem as I and claimed that the Gatorback (since bought by Continental Elite) did the trick. So i bought the one that the reviewer bought (the 4080945 model) and brought it to my mechanic and try as he did, he absolutely could not get it on. I read of a few people who bought this one for their 2008 Sequoia and they mentioned it was tight but they got it on. Not sure if they had the Limited (larger engine) or if that even makes a difference but the 4080945 didn't work for my car and I went with the 4080948.
We brought the car back with this belt and skeptical as my mechanic was, he gladly gave it a try and low and behold...IT WORKED. No more squealing when starting it up. We've had it now a few days and so far so good. Hopefully there are no issues and if so, I'll update. But for we are very glad to not have to cringe whenever we start up the car.
1. Remove skid plate from under engine/radiator area.
2. Using a 14mm socket and a cheater bar, take the tension off the old belt using the tensioner pulley.
3. Remove old belt with tension off.
4. Following a belt routing diagram, feed the belt around all the many pulleys. I found it easier to push the belt up from the bottom and then pull the belt up and engage the upper pulleys from the top, then went down underneath a completed routing the belt to all the pulleys.
5. Use the tensioner pulley as your last pulley compressing the spring loaded pulley to give you enough slack to slide it over the pulley.
6. Remove the socket and cheater bar and visually inspect that the belt is squarely aligned and in the grooves for each pulley.
7. Remove all tools and items you may have had in the engine area.
8. Put the key in the ignition and just turn it over for a split second without starting it. Go inspect on more time to ensure the belt and pulleys are aligned correctly.
9. If all looks good, go ahead and start your engine. With this belt, the squeak or squeal should be gone and it should be running just like you expect.
Note: Be sure to wear safety glasses, use jack stands, and follow all normal safety procedures before attempting to do this. It's an easy job, but you just need a little patience while you work the belt around all those pulleys.
I've reviewed the '945 on the associated page. I picked it firstly because of a review there, and then when I checked the Goodyear site, this belt ('948) is not listed.
