First let me say this is not a job for you.
You have what is called an interference engine
That means if the belt breaks or you install it wrong, it will bend all the valves
This will result in engine damage.
Please take it to a mechanic.
If you still want to do the job, go to autozone and get a manual on your car.
You must follow it to the letter and you must aline the cam(s) and the crank .

Highly recommend that if you have never attemped to do this you change your mind and have it professionally done.
Now If you chose to do this you will need to get a heynes manual, or something simular to this, you can get this from your local auto parts store. You will never to verify that it is not an interferance engine. If it is you will need to take the heads off and have them repaired at a local machine shop. Make sure you replace time belts and ALL componets. this might be a good time to look into replacing your water pump while you have the motor half apart. Good luck.

Good luck, changing a timing belt is super-hard for anyone without mechanic's training. Save up the $400~ and go to a reputable shop.

If you go to the part store they have books on the different cars and it tells you how to do things like that.
