Need help! Anyone know where I can get a write up of how to put in my new ac compressor? I'm stuck 'cause I don't know how to put the belt back on.

i don't have a diy but i'm assuming much like the alternator, or the power steering pump, it slides back and forth to adjust belt tension, so simply move it as far in as it will go slip the belt on, then slide it out so the belt is good and tight, then tighten up the bolts.

Yessss, I figured it out today! Heres what I did:
1.Jacked up the car (of course)
2.Placed the jack underneath the oil pan (to prevent engine from falling)
3.Removed the front-left mount bracket (unscrew the large bolt that goes through the mount horizontally first)
4.Slip the Compressor belt over the mount and the rest is a piece of cake!
Thanks for the suggestions though!
