I believe I read on twitter from their support that once they have something to work with after whatever BTG group is doing they would simply release a wallet update that supports it.
They did the same for Bitcoin cash. If you open the BTC wallet now you get ask if your opening bitcoin cash or bitcoin. I assume there will simply be an option for Bitcoin Gold once any actually action is taken to start that up after Nov 1st.

You can't, first of all there is no mainnet released to do that. The trezor team has not announced yet that the withdrawal is possible after they announce it I think btg will be dump to 0$. Why? Because those who had their bitcoin on the exchanges already had sold their bitcoin gold, now the price for 1 btg is 100$, which is very very low and show how the people treat it, it is even worse than some shit coins. The second fork, however, is going to be very tricky, but I think it will be worth more than btg.

I believe ledger will list bitcoin gold automatically, later. Same as bitcoin cash before.

Looks like some source code is already available at GitHub (?) at this address so perhaps we will be able to get Bitcoin Gold from Ledger nano S soon ? - https://github.com/BTCGPU/BTCGPU

You need a soft convert seed to private key, and import private keyto wallet support BTG ( but you must sent all BTC to other wallet to secure yor BTC)

Bitcoin Gold is now accessible on the Ledger Nano S. Hooray!!!!! The software for the Ledger Nano S is available, but I don't believe their tech support is actively supporting it as of this post. So use caution. Here is how you can access it.
Step 1 ) Verify that you have Ledger Wallet Bitcoin Chrome app v.1.9.9 Step 2) Verify your Ledger Nano S firmware is up to date v.1.3.1 Step 3) Install the Bitcoin Gold app on your device via the Ledger Manager Step 4) If you do not have room on the device, simply delete one of the other apps.(don't worry your coins will be safe, just re-install app and they will be there) Step 5) Launch the Ledger Wallet Bitcoin Chrome app on your computer Step 6) Launch Bitcoin Gold app on your ledger device Step 7) Click on the "BTG split tool"line on the chrome app (near the bottom) Step 8 ) Select either legacy / segwit chain depending how your wallet is set up. Step 9) Let the app sync - This will take a few minutes. Step 10) Viola!! There is your Bitcoin Gold Step 11) Now you can either hold your coins in this wallet or send them to an exchange.
Replay protection has been enabled so your original BTC is safe.
**Be aware that one of the complaints about BTG is that it is unstable. So there may be risk associated with moving it around. Please understand the risks and exercise caution.
Cheers

For future reference, if someone is searching for this information like I did - the Split Tool option is a tiny text in the screen where you select between SegWit and non SegWit bitcoin, after you open the chrome app. It's there in the bottom. I missed it a couple of times until I figured it out.

Cases of hacking wallets have recently become more frequent. I know about the cases with https://blockchain.info/ and the bittrex exchange. People downloaded bitcoin gold for themselves. After that, they lost money.
