Belts

If you have the aircon rad under the engine, its tricky, look down the left hand side of the rad, right at the bottem is the tensioner pully, its locked by the nut through the middle, undo this, then with the steering on full left lock, lift the front rubber flap, right behind the steering box you can see the adjusting nut. A 14mm socket and long extension will let you loosen the tensioner pulley. Fit the belt and tighten everythnig up.

An alternative, is to unbolt the bash plate, unbolt the aircon rad and pull it down as far as you can at the front, you may be able to get you hands in this way and reach the tensiner pully.

If you don't have the aircon rad underneath, its easy from below.
