AC bypass belt size?

YES!!! I SEARCHED....

I found that there are aparently 4 diff sizes or kinds of ac compresors on our cars. I have a 96 and I live in Minnesota it is a GXE 5 spd

Does anybody know what size I need I have narrowed it down to a 36.5 or a 37inch long I am pretty sure these are the sizes. but if I am wrong please tell me.

I need to know right away cause all I have to get there is my bike and it is already 30 out so I dont want it to get colder.

I use a 37" in the winter. To Kevlo. I've gone and tried a size that didn;t fit, and went to the store the same day, and traded it in for one that did, a size or 2 smaller than I had originally purchased. Trial & error.

Courtesy / DAVEB / Pinnacle / <insert favorite dealer here> has them for less than 40$. Every easy to repalce too. 5 rib will work. It's getting warm outside, you guys sure you want to not have an AC?
