Can't offer suppliers. I can tell you some stuff:

Part No: MD317142
Cost from Mitsy is £30.95 + VAT.
Fitting (45 mins) is £36.75 + VAT.

I didn't look into sourcing and fitting myself, as have been relatively busy recently. I still feel I got stung, though! Zedy said something about being able to pick them up for about £10 from the right place and fitting taking an hour.

Quite right - you can get them from any decent motor factors. I did post the sizes on a thread before but the search does not pick it up anymore since the crash. I will try to find it ;)

Okay found the original thread from August last year:

"Alternator Belt: 945mm 4 groove (MD184973 - £18.96+VAT)
PS Belt: 1060mm 6 groove (MD317142 - £30.35 +VAT)

If you don't wanna pay Mitsy prices you should be able to get these much cheaper - a local place does 950mm for £7.42 + VAT and 1063mm for £9.79 + VAT - the odd few mm won't make a difference "

Hope this helps
