you have to take off the passenger fender, and you need a pulley puller and a belt tensioner. i dunno, i got mine put on for like 40 bucks. it shouldn't be a hundred.

You don't need to do most of that...that's almost like killing a fly with a shotgun. =]

Installation is a cinch on the ST...(if you have the tools...I did)

Remove the passenger side front tire, and the inner plastic piece (or just the two top bolts and fold it down) After that, the pulley is exposed. Lossen belts, 3 bolts on alternator, 2 on ac compressor... remove belts. Take off main pulley bolt, pull out pulley with pulley puller... (note, I had a larger 3 claw pulley puller, which was too big... but I also had a smaller bolt in type puller, which worked...make sure your pulley puller isn't too big) Try not to dislodge the chuck key. Spray a bit of WD40 on the pulley chuck and on the pulley... slip on, making sure the key is in place... Torque down. Put on new belts, tension tight, but not too tight to where you can't flip the belt with your fingers. Tighten the rest of the bolts, and you're set.

Enjoy...
