Its pretty easy, i did it in about 45 mins by myself. Search and there are great how to's on here that i followed.

1)First step is take off the passenger wheel
2)take off splash gaurd
3)get a 1/2" breaker bar and there is a 1/2" square fitting on the tensioner, i cant rem if you tirn it CW or CCW, but youll see when you are down there.
4)Use a screw driver to keep the prybar in place and wedged so you have slack in the belt
5)take belt off, i cut mine to make it easy
6)hardest step, putting it back on, take your time, work from the firewall side to the bumper side(keep the tensioer loose)
7)Once the belt is on remove the screwdriver that it holding the tensioner.

Also i made a quick sketch before i took my belt off so that i could know how to put the new one on. Made it easy!

Hope this helps
