To have the belt work you will need to remove the A/C compressor and the idler pulley right below the alternator. Then just get few belts shorter than what the book calls for and do some trial and error. Here is how I see the belt routing to work, and I have left how to remove the A/C compressor as well and how to discharge the system which you must do beforehand. You can take back the belts that don't fit and get your money back.
