Go to any parts store and get one. Usually they will offer 2 different belts. An economy belt, less expensive. And a more expensive, but better belt. If you have Discount Auto or Advance Auto around you they carry a Dayco Top Cog belt that I have had great luck with. It is similar to the gatorback belt, and has little cogs in it that keep it running cooler and therefore does not crack up and deteriorate as much.<a href=\"http://www.fullthrottlev6.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.fullthrottlev6.com</a> THE SOURCE!

what's the big deal? i consider a serpentine belt as part of the "consumables" on my car. just get any one. at worst it will last you at least two years, if not double that. what's $15 for 2-4 years of wear? just keep an eye on it that's all.

well.... i dont wish to bad mouth some parts stores, but sometimes the stuff you get there doesnt quite meet oem specs. i bought an upper radiator hose at one of these places and it didnt have a bend to relief engine vibration and sure enough it broke the upper fitting on the radiator. the napa hose had the bend and after sweating the fitting back on, it was golden ever since.
napa isnt perfect--the lower radiator hose didnt have the coil spring inside to prevent collapsing. i had to go to yates to get a hose.
