All you need is the belt and tensioner. Just find the best price and order them.

Mine either came from Pelican or FCPEuro, don't recall which. No kit, just a belt and a tensioner. I did the water pump while I was in there since one of the bolts is blocked by the belt. The Continental belt was out of stock at the time, so I ended up with a Febi Bilstein belt instead.

pretty sure thats the same brand tensioner I used. Make sure you find the plastic sleeve for the pivot bolt before re-using the crummy original or you'll find the sleeve after you have put it all back together.
