    Good fit on honda civic 1999 D16Y7.
    This fit well and I plan to order a few more since it tends to fail every few years. The bolt sheath from the old pulley has to be reused on this new one. So far works great. Belt tension has to be properly set. Don't make it too stiff even all pulleys gonna fail.http://www.instructables.com/id/Replacing-AC-Idler-Pulley-on-my-Honda-Civic-1999/

    So I had a squeaky belt or pulley. I did some research and found out this was the most likely culprit. I ordered this and was delivered pretty quick. So the whole process of me taking the old pulley off and putting the new pulley on took 20 minutes. And I’m glad I did buy this, the old parts had some cracked plastic. After installing this part the squeaking went away. So I knew that this was the squeaking noise. The fit was very good, just like the original. The pulley is smooth as silk, the engine now runs very well without the noise so I’m really happy.

    Had a terrible grinding noise from failed bearings. 25 years will do that to an OEM pulley. This design is slightly different than what I had on my 99 Civic EX, but that's because the original style is no longer available. This one spins nice and quiet, and installation was pretty straight forward. It's the tensioner pulley for my AC belt. Noise is gone. Great value for a low-cost solution.

    The bearing is quality and seems to be the same as original manufacturer on my 2001 CR-V. There are parts to swap over from the original so make sure to set them side by side and transfer parts and this the reason for 4 stars. I installed it and seems to work fine but is slightly different from the original and may confuse your typical DIYer.

    I was tempted to get the cheaper plastic tensioner replacement I see on Amazon but wanted the metal one. I'm GLAD I did, because I discovered bad pulley on the car was actually one of the plastic aftermarket type replaced at some point in the past. This was a perfect fit, feels very solid, and absolutely worth a few extra bucks for the quality.
