How do I remove the Serpentine Belt Tensioner?

I need to remove the serpentine belt tensioner on my 99 9-3 so I can replace the plastic pully, but I can't figure out how the darned thing is mounted. I can see the torx bolt that holds the pully to the tensioner, but there is not enough space to get a tool in there. I can also see another torx bolt on the arm, with barely enough room to get a tool in there. Do I remove the entire tensioner, to remove and replace the pully, or can I just remove the arm that the pully is mounted on?
I can't find a diagram on the tensioner assembly, and I don't know if I'll be releasing a spring if I remove that big Torx 50 bolt that the arm appears to pivot around.
