AC Belt

I changed out my serpentine belt yesterday with a gatorback, and discovered the squeeking coming from my AC belt. Does anyone have a how to to change that one? Not sure which pulley is the tensioner....assuming it is one of the two next to the AC unit, just not sure which one, and I want to throw a gatorback on that one as well. As always thanks for everyones knowledge

Remove the upper idler (one bolt 15mm), install the belt, reinstall the idler, release the tensioner (the lower one). It's hard to put that new belt on in such tight quarters. I did this on my 01 and it was easy
