How To: Replace alternator belt on a mr2

My first ever "How to" video, learn how to replace the alternator belt on a mr2 mk2 n/a. The method in the video will be very similar in other vehicles however the alternator will be in a different location.

This video helped me out soooo much with tightening my belt just by the view at 1:19, thank you for uploading!

THERE IS AN EASIER WAY!!! No need to put the car on stilts or remove any wheels or parts.
Simply loosen the locking nut and then loosen the tensioner bolt realy far untill you can push the alternator forwards.
Slide the new belt onto the small pulley.
Lie down on the floor and you car reach aroumd the wheel, you can then easily grab the belt and push it around the big wheel. Some blind work with your hands from the top to position the belt properly.
Then tighten everything back up.
And vwala

So for some reason, I couldn't figure out that there was a locking bolt as well as the tightening bolt. The locking bolt is accessible from the top side of the engine bay and I used a 13mm socket on it. Just a heads up for people who didn't have that click for them either lol

This doesn’t make any sense lol. You undo a bolt and the. You’re like “so now that the belt is gone” I don’t understand
