Everything always costs more in Canada than just the converted amount, so I doubt you will save too much more.

Montgomery auot (4nparts.com) will have them. I think I paid about $30 for mine.

I believe they have been trying to sell the business for a long time with no luck. YOu can also try these guys http://www.ahmueller.com/index.html
The belt is easy but it is best to have the manual so you can double check which way it goes around the pullies. The only tool needed is a wrench to pull back the tensioner.

Brent, it may be different since his car is of the MK3 VR6 variety.
