TPiS does one for it. I always thought it a bit expensive but it does get the job done and is attractive enough.

The 10055890 listed above should cross to a dorman 34157. About $30 from amazon.

I considered your "location" when I mentioned only the TPiS unit. Same belt, very straight forward install I believe and a one package shipment to consider. I've never used one but I've used similar products to accomplish the delete on other applications. There is the "bling" - which will likely be disguised in a "plain brown wrapper"!!

I have used the car with a broken A/C for 4 years. So that pice of aluminium is just dead weight atm.
This will clean things up, thanks for the tip..

I use the one from TPIS and works great. Had it for a couple years now and it is run under racing conditions without any issues. The one thing I will tell you is that you will have to shim it a little when you bolt it to the ac compressor bracket. No big deal at all, you will see what I mean when you go to mount it. I just used a couple of AL washers.
