URGENT HELP...Which way for timing belt arrows

[thirteen]

Hi all, heres my problem:

just picked up my car after getting new lifters put in my
GSR 1.8T. All good. Then the mechanic says "did you put the timing
belt on?". No. I had a mechanic do it, cost a *****-load.
(Not the place that did my new lifters)
"well it's on backwards".

My question is:
Standing facing the timing belt cover, (passenger side)
should the arrows on the timing belt be pointing clock-wise?
Mine are pointing anti-clockwise.

I need to know for sure before I go back and make
them do the work (plus new belt) for free. Lucky I keep receipts...

the arrows on the belt should point the same way as the motor spins, and i think these motors spin anticlockwise

Thanks for the reply mate

I so much hope that you're right.
Otherwise I have to chase up the mechanic
who changed the timing belt and get him to
place it the right way.

Can anyone say for sure if the 4G93T spins
anti-clockwise or not?

CLOCKWISE.

It is always clockwise.
