    Found this information for you >>>Disconnect battery!! Two cables attached to alternator - one 13mm nut and one 8mm nut (may be 10mm ) Undo both nuts, remove cables, replace nuts so you don't lose them. Next - the alternator will be held in by two bolts. Bottom one is 16mm and a pain to get to unless you've got a spanner or a short socket/ratchet. The bottom bolt is about 3 inches long - so don't worry that you seem to be undoing it for ages. On mine, its got a fancy tensioning system for the upper bolt. I would unscrew the tensioning system so the belt is loose and remove the belt from the alternator - may need to undo the bolt holding the alternator to the bracket first, then once belt is out the way undo the top bolt completly. The alternator should now be free to come out - but may need some encouragement as they can be a bit tight.
    Then do the opposite. Fit alternator, loosely fit bottom bolt, fit belt around alternator, fit top bolt loosely. Tension the belt. Tighten top and bottom bolts to hold alternator in place. Fit both cables onto new alternator. Connect battery.
