What belts do I need for my RX-C100? My tape player is fine but someday it will inevitably need belts, Would like to order them in advance, Not that familiar with this, If I have a shop do it will they have this kind of thing on hand?

Thank you guys! I googled them last night and found the same info, Just have no idea when they were last replaced or ever, Deck sounds and works good though, Is this a rather something I could DIY on my C-100 if need be? I have some electric repair background I use to build computers, and I've been tinkering with stuff since I was a kid, Haven't had the C-100 apart yet for a look, I've never done belt repair on a deck before :yes: I use to curb clean component systems all the time and most of my tape decks were direct drive though

Ordered the belts today from a1parts canada, They will be in cool storage until the box needs them, I'm guessing they were replaced sometime in the past 33 years, as the deck works perfectly and rewind and fast forward are fast, I bought the box from someone who got it from an antique store a few years ago, Maybe the antique dealer rebelted the box? I can't see rubber belts lasting that long, But then again this box looks as if it never left the living room....
