You don't need to replace any belts. The P/S and alt belts will work fine without the A/C belt...

Well on my civic there was one major thing i forgot to do after removing the AC.. cover/plug/weld the hole in the firewall where the AC lines run into the car by the stock battery location.
the passenger compartment would get pretty damn hot on summers days with all the engine bay air blowing into the heater boxes and coming out the vents, which would blow right into your face!
(edit: I am a freggin typo king!)

Its not too hard to remove everything.. the only thing is to remember to cover that hole. Start with the AC compressor, then start following/removing the lines from there. Once u get ot the firewall, u dont HAVE to take apart the internals of the AC, but I did, just popped the dash off, removed the "box" thing that holds what I assume is the condenser (?) opened up that box, thru out the condenser or what ever, and put everything together.
Just amke sure u cover that hole! lol
