just an fyi....
I did have to remove the fan. 2 bolts at the top and 1 at the bottom. I left the reservoir on the fan and just disconnected the rubber hose I saw no way to get the old alternator out without removing the fan just not enough room. Watch for the small connectors on the lower part of the fan shroud so you don't damage them when removing the fan. Once i got the fan out of the way it was just a normal alternator installation.

I hope he has over 200k cause im at 158k and don't feel like changing an alternator any time soon.
What sucks is once it fails you have minutes before your car just kills the battery and subsequently leaves you stranded
