first you need to remove the bushing bolt. 19mm socket i believe. Then remove the lower engine mount bracket 2 bolts mounted from bottom up. All this is on the driver side with the wheel removed as well as the wheel well plastic cover. once trhe mount is removed you can now slip your ac belt over the mount shaft for the compressor bracket. You can now hook up your belt . of course you have you remove the power steering belt first Good luck.

I just put on an ac compressor, that stupid motor mount really was tricky. I used a jack to hoold the engine up, and jack stands. Good luck.

1. Place car on jackstands.
2. Remove bolts holding in lower torque mount (Driver side).
3. Place jack under motor (oil pan) with block of wood.
4. Jack car up slightly to remove tension on driver-side motor mount.
5. Un-bolt motor mount.
6. Lower engine to gain clearance on the torque mount.
7. Slip belt over the torque mount.
8. Install belt, and do the reverse to bolt the mounts back in.
