Alternator replacement needs to be done from under the car. Disconnet the neg. battery cable. Raise the car, use jack stands. Remove the under car cover, alternator will be exposed. You will need to remove the drive belts. Disconnect the three wires on the back of the alt, then remove the three bolts holding it in place (front top/rear top/front bottom). The alt should now fall free (you may have to nudge it free). You will have to loosen the bottom alt bracket to ge the alt out. Installation is reverse of removal.
