Default Serpentine Belt Tensioner

At 140k miles, my 2002 S60 serpentine belt tensioner appears to have seized up and caused the belt to shred and fail. It competely knocked off the tensioner pulley. So now I need to replace the serpentine belt AND the tensioner.

The belt replacement looks pretty straightforward. However, I'm wondering how to change the tensioner. I've seen a lot of instructions and videos on replacing the belt but haven't seen one specifically addressing the tensioner. I only saw one diagram showing two bolts holding it on.

With no instructions out there, I'm thinking the tensioner is either very easy to replace or extremely difficult. Any advice is much appreciated. Thanks!

Should be very easy.
