i installed my gatorback belt about 2 weeks ago and i love it. personally i would say take it back and get the gatorback belt. i have attached the tool that i used to pull on the tensioner. i got it from autozone for 3.99 and worked perfectly

thanks guys..i just ordered it..should be here in a week..but as long as the fitment is as good as the OEM belt then installation is a snap..i returned the belt i bought already..can't wait for the gator back belt to come..

if you keep your sanity, that's why I'm going spineyes

plus if you tend to cruise around crowds of people walking, it will keep them from staring at you wondering what's messed up with a new car.

oh man does it work..it fit like a glove compare to the one i bought from advanced auto part..no more squeaky..yay..i'm so glad i purchase this..installation took 30sec after you remove the old belt..it's easier if you took off ur passenger side tire and drop the underside plastic to expose the pulley..so yeah..i highly recommend them to anyone of you with squeaky problem..although i feel like, at first, acceleration reaction is slower..but maybe it's just me or maybe the belt is being break in slowly..
