    I know it was asked earlier but I haven't seen an answer to it.

    Is it possible to get a shorter belt so you can bypass the compressor?

    Not by just a shorter belt. You need a by-pass pulley.

    I did think about this too late as it happens as I'd the radiator etc back in but looking at the angles if you missed out the compressor I don't think the tensioner would work properly but I'd be happy if someone came up with a differnt answer. This would enable us to carry a spare belt which could be fitted instantly

    It dose not work you need a bracket and pulley to replace the a/c compressor.
