That one on the first link (Dayco) doesn't appear to have the top roller/tensioner unit - or am I missing something :-?.  If so, I would avoid as these bits are critical to replace with the belt.

You're right - shows only belt + 1 idler and bolt - says contents as pictured.  Omitted is tensioner + housing and other idler + fixing bolts.

All these are included in GM (Gates & Contitech kits) and must be changed along with belt.

The Dayco kit is sold incomplete and hence cheap >:(
