This is very difficult for me to explain so please excuse me. Remove the air box, remove the drivers side wheel, remove the plastic cover so you can see the crank through the wheel arch. Then if you have air condishoning you wil see an engine mount which needs to be removed or undone anyway. Feed your fan belt around the pullys and putting a size 15 spanner into the tensionner pully and using another spanner to pull back the pully, feed the belt through that section. E-mail me if you need further assistance: trit666@hotmail.com , Or maybe you could pick up a haynes manuel.
Kind Regards.
