Its not that hard, probably just have to get some string and measure it. i think they did make some that came without AC but when they got to dealership they put it on so u might beable to call a dealership and get a belt size not sure though. Also u will need to get the freon taken out of the system so it doesnt spray every where when u take it off.

Have fun removing the AC. If you plan to do it yourself you will have to vent the Freon(illegal) before you can disconnect the compressor. That stuff is very cold and messy.

As for finding the right size belt it isnt that hard to do. Like ^^^ said use a piece of string to measure the length.

i dont even think you'd need to disconnect it....i mean, leave the AC in just dont connect a belt to it. would that work? or no?
