You may have to reomve some plastic to reveal the belt route and tensioner. You look at how it is, draw a pic or take a pic and then use a socket wrench and a small piece of pipe and insert it into the belt tensioner and use light leverage to compress the tensioner and release the belt tension. Then remove the belt and replace it, routing it through the same way via pic. Some cars have belt routing in engine bay to guide you. Good luck!

Inspection
Inspect the drive belt for signs of glazing or cracking. A glazed belt will be perfectly smooth from slippage, while a good belt will have a slight texture of fabric visible. Cracks will usually start at the inner edge of the belt and run outward. All worn or damaged drive belts should be replaced immediately.
