I would be inclined myself to have a look for a shorter belt from a duratec without aircon.
Never thought of this, i shall be ringing euro car parts in the morning
Wow what's sico done?
Would like to remove mine also and would like to see how this goes
Iv managed to sort the problem, some people just leave it open with out the plate on but i wanted piece of mind so iv bonded the plate to the pulley and then put a bolt threw the hole and put lock thread on the nut, just don't want the pulley to come off lol it will do for now until i get a smaller belt
Iv never liked the lad to be honest, he's just out to make money and sell rubbish. For example iv also said i will never buy any of his products but i was finding myself abit stuck about relating my battery so I got a battery relocation kit from him and the kit came with 50mm cable(i thought was abit excessive) junction box a few spade connectors for the cable, 2 terminals and battery tray, out of that kit i used the battery tray and had to make do with the crap junction box and the rest was just crap. before fitting it I contacted SI about the cable and he said that i would need 35mm cable and if i was to use the cable he suppled i would have to fuse it cause there would be to much power running threw it (so why send me 50mm??) i asked if he fancied fitting it for me 4 times and i got ignored but he answered my other question in-between.
So the kit i bought i ended up buying new cable, connetors, terminals and i fused the new cable for piece of mind aswell. The kit was useless. he's suppose to have tried and tested everything and nothing added up when i relocated my battery with the kit he supplied.
In the end i just don't like the lad never have and i don't think i ever will and i just hope that i don't see the lad again, rant over
