Do you have a stock hood? If so, check it for a diagram - I have a 97 Cobra, with a stock hood, and it has a diagram on how to route the belt.

use a 3/8" drive ratchet in #7 (tensioner) to get tension off the belt so you can get it off. After the new belt is routed on almost all of the pullies use the tensioner again get it over a remaining pulley.

Just make sure it is seated correctly on all the pulleys before firing it back up.

it was a very easy job, but then my compressor clutch locked up and the shop wanted to charge me a left nut to fix it and i fixed it myself but they charged me 67 bucks for another belt after they cut the one i put in...douches

Doesn't make much sense why they would cut your new belt, unless they weren't able to move the tensioner.
Quite douchey.

thats what i said, but they probably figured i was gonna go ahead and dish out 1100 bucks and give them the go ahead to do the work. i wanted to ask them how a belt from napa cost 65 bucks when it cost 26 from
