Accessory belt DIY?
I think I will be needing a new belt soon and I figure Ill replace it in the nice warm summer in my garage instead of the winter on the side of the road. Havent even opened the hood to check yet, but I did search this forum for any info, but really couldnt find any. Im not afraid of doing it myself, just need to know what to expect such as time, special tools, type of beer etc. Also, best place to get one?
Thanks!

I'd highly recommend using a serpentine belt tool such as this:

It helps to snake the belt around all of the pulleys where there is no room to get your arm in there. Also, you'll need a 30mm wrench for the tensioner.
