Cam belt is a really low tech piece of rubber with wire in it. Just get any but fit it right and make sure it isnt damaged when fitted.

LOL, I really dont agree with that at all, the belt is under a massive amount of strain and I personally want to know its a well made one thats not going to break up prematurely, they are enough of a ballache to fit really to be worth spending literally half a tank of fuel extras worth on a decent one.

Every F7 belt kit I've seen so far comes with INA tensioner and idler, so identical to genuine. There are only a handful of comapanies that make cambelts, which are then rebranded and sold as lots of different things.

I would happily use Contitech (continental), SKF, Gates, FAI, QH, INA. They're all identical in my experience.

If you're lucky, you'll get a Renault boxed kit from GSF for half the price of a dealership.
