Seriously dude it can be done without fully removing the belt...
But trust me... It is a lot easier to do the job completely

i know it can be done without removing belt..
when u put the belt on theres just a good chance tha the bottom mark gets moveds dats all ...
but why risk it doing it dodgy ?? .... its just not worth to risk it
Are your cams standard?

Complete removal of the timing belt is a waste of time. You do need to loosen the tensioner however as said previously.
As for the cam thing, just find the right sized allen key and put it in the slot to lock it in. Look at the cams, you'll figure it out :)
thats the way im going to do it.. thanks peoplesQuote:

Use 5mm pin punch or similar

i.e. some aftermarket (all?) camshafts dont have the holes that the OEM camshafts have, so you cant use the pin to lock them in ;)
