8G 2002 Galant 2.4 accessory/timing belts *info please*

So for a merry christmas present to my lil sis I told her I would buy and change all the belts on her '02 Galant. Big mistake on my part, I think, I'm already out $110. There are 2 "timing" belts, 1 is the balance shaft belt the other is the "real" timing belt. There are also 2 accessory belts. On the galant forums everyone says take it in. I don't take anything in for service but this is making me nervous.

Anyone got any tips that pertain to this gen galant? I know the general timing belt stuff like marking positions and what not, I have changed a few in the past. The galant crowd isn't as tech savvy as the lancer crew.
