Here's a pic of the stock A/C bracket which just has a tensioner on it.
Belt for use with Powerbond Under-drive pulley & new Holden A/C Bracket with Idler = 4PK1080
(Unsure if this Powerbond pulley is the new or old version as they did not mark them to indicate the design change).

My A/C wasn't working so I took it to the dealer and come to find out the belt came off. They ordered a new one and it has been on there ever since they installed it over a year ago. This is a nice setup though for those that have problems with the A/C belt coming off.
Can this be a warranty item?
