5 minute job to replace.

PS belt is at the front of the motor and runs round the Outer Crank pulley, Alternator and PS Pump

Loosen the 12mm bolt on the passenger side of the alternator.
Loosen the 12mm pinch bolt on the tensioner/adjuster on driver's side of the alternator.
Wind the alternator adjuster bolt anti-clockwise until the alternator drops low enough for the belt to be removed.

Fit new belt, working back through the process above.

Check the belt adjustment when you've finished tightening eveything up. - You should be able to twist the belt through 45 degrees on it's longest run, to check it's tension
