You must first remove the serpentine drive belt.

You must remove the two devices that sit on top and rearward of the PS pump. One is the Cruise control unit and the other box is electrical in nature.

then you must remove the one bolt in the back side of the pump that is attached to a bracket and the three bolts on the front side of the pump that attaches it to the bracket. You must remove the front three by using the holes in the pulley. The bolt on the back side is not easy to get to and you may need to unbolt another bracket to get to it.

Suck out all the PS fluid and remove both the PS pump lines, one with line wrench and one with clip on rubber hose.

You may also want to remove the molded plastic air intake by loosening small bolt holding it to the intake manifold on the back side.

At that point the PS pump can be rotated around to be removed. This requires some patience and some unique moving the PS pump. But it will come out.

Get the pump with the reservoir already on it. More $ but less trouble and mess.

Hope this helps. Just did it a month ago on my sons's 2002 Cavalier. Was pretty easy compared to other jobs I have done.
