I believe you can, you just need to size it up right. Never done it, so I don't know the specifics.

NAPA can measure the length, make sure you get a "metric" belt so that the width is right.

well you can try to measure the clutch pulley in closed position, and front pulley in open position to get a good idea on what size the belt is. thats basically ur only other option, unless you get a stock belt.

It's around .4" wide, less than 1/2 inch, which is the common domestic size. Width is listed in the service manual.
