First u need a long breaker bar to pull the tension off the belt tensioner, Once thats done the belt should pop off, Then re-install reverse from unstall.

I just did this yesterday- 9/6/07 -thought I'd add some more for anyone else who might ask the same.

Raise the car, and remove the right-front wheel -
makes it' easier to reach the tensioner from underneath.

Use a 3/8" drive breaker bar to release the tensioner pressure/tension.
