You mean the serpentine/accessory belt? Supercheap, Repco, Autobarn, Bursons, all stock them, and it will take all on 2 minutes to change.
All you need to do is put a socket/spanner on the tensioner pulley, turn it anti-clockwise to loosen it.

Small recommendation, there are 2 types to the Ecotec engines so when you get the belt quote your VIN number.Originally Posted by acarmody

Put the belt on on all tentionsers except the water pump as this pulley has no lip to it. I have fitted many of these on my car.
