Yea I just replaced mine a couple weeks ago. yea you got to take the front passenger wheel off the take the wheel well cover off that covers the alternator there will be a bracket on the bottom of the alternator take them off and there will be a bolt on top its a t bolt is to adjust the tension on the belt on the alternator so if the new alternator needs tightening or losing its on the side of that top bolt you got get under the car and put your hand up between the firewall and alternator bracket. I hope this helps you some what[sm=smiley20.gif]
