Is this such a stupid question that nobody wants to answer?

Well, I will step up and try to help. The job is not that hard.

After you loosen the idlers and get the belts off the pulleys, just work them around the radiator fan to get them off. Not that bad. As you take each one off lay them out in order on the ground. Match up the replacement to it and work the new one around the fan going on.

Torque values from Service Manual

A/C-29 ft/lbs
Alternator Pivot(Bottom) Bolt-43 ft/lbs
Alternator Adjusting Lock Bolt(Top)-21 ft/lbs
P/S-29 ft/lbs

You will need to remove the skid plates and work from underneath for the A/C belt idler pulley.
