James here, The 40 I got off Curly has had that done.

This is the only picture of the engine bay I have unfortantly, But the aircon pump can be seen behind the battery and Washer bottle.

I'll try and get a better picture tomorrow If no one else get's here before then.

Can you tell me if they were all running off the same belt??? It looks like there is just the 1 belt in the photo. thanks
