Alternator removal
Here's a useful thread too

Fyi. The top bolt was a nightmare for me, but a little heat from a lighter, some penetrating fluid plus the all important bolt extractor set on standby and a very important angled ratchet gets the job done, assuming it's stuck solid like mine.
Getting the alternator out
Tight space to say the least
Going in from underneath
Bolt extractor finally gets her out
