    But there is, you have the following websites which have huge databases with walkmans, recorders, decks:
    https://walkman.land/
    https://www.just-cassette.com/
    https://personalhifiblog.blogspot.com/
    https://www.walkman-archive.com/wa/sony-walkman/
    https://walkmancentral.com/products/tc-d5
    https://www.hifiengine.com/manual_library/sony/tc-d5.shtml
    All of these typically appear on first page of a Google web search. If they don't add yourself the name of website in the keywords, like "TC-D5 hifiengine",
    guarantee you this way you'll spend a maximum of 10 seconds searching (which is less than what it took you to write a post here).

    This is my last post in this regard, as this discussion has nothing to do with the rubber set.

    Does anyone have the dimensions of the belts, idlers and pinch roller?
    I can't buy on eBay, but maybe I can find something by dimensions from Marian (fixyouraudio.com).

    You can cross reference the sony part numbers in the service manual with the turntableneedles dimensions, if I have time I will find them.

    Edit: “Belt, pulley” https://www.turntableneedles.com/so...xx-square-drive-belt-sbl5.7-sony-3-545-601-xx

    “Belt (A)”
    https://www.turntableneedles.com/so...00-square-drive-belt-sbs3.5-sony-3-507-115-00

    “Belt, tape counter”
    https://www.turntableneedles.com/so...00-square-drive-belt-sbo5.2-sony-3-545-602-00

    I remember I had to order the DeckTech kit as Marian does not have one of the required belts, but do check with him as I may be mistaken.

    A word of warning: Marian specifies the belts on his site by Diameter, so do remember to convert the dimensions.

    Thanks.

    "Belt, pulley" - X
    "Belt (A)" - https://fixyouraudio.com/product/sq...2-for-cassette-players-and-cd-players-falymc/
    "Belt, tape counter" - d=42mm.
    closest 40mm - https://fixyouraudio.com/product/rubber-belt-40-1-0-mm-square-shaped/

    Find dimensions measured by Valentin in another thread, but can't find nothing close from Marian unfortunately.

    Pinch roller - https://fixyouraudio.com/product/pinch-roller-13x8x2mm/
