Is it possible to remove serp belt without taking apart bumper, radiator, and all the stuffs in front of the car?

Default Serpentine Belt Tensioner is 17mm, pull clockwise and remove the belt from the p/s pulley

remove the p/s pump complete with its bracket (6mm allen)
you should also get the suction hose cause it should be very brittle and will most likely break. There is no need to remove the bumper or anything.

Default I got it. Thanks a lot. Anything else I should be careful before and after...

installation of ps pump?

I should drain fluid first, then put new pump and suction hose back in. and then just top-off fluid and bleeding. Is it correct?
