With great difficulty my friend..
If your mechanically minded and patient then you could do quiet well if you follow my steps as i did mine today.
- Jack up the car on driver side, take off wheel and use secondary jack or something in case one fails.just been a bit safer.
- Engine mount/support arm has to come off 1st and is held by 3 bolts going through a spacer plate which is located smack in centre of timing belt array and one nut at the top but most important to put a secure bottle jack or something under the engine so it don't drop or strain other parts. (also vital for reassembly later)
- now with that arm out of the way and the wheel off your going to see 2 belts coming from the crankshaft pulley at the bottom of the engine to the water pump and alternator (I hope its a diesel model or there ain't much point) email me at goodturn@o2.ie and ill gladly talk you through the rest of it. Gav.
