Alternator replacement DIY?

I can't fine one of these anywhere. Is it because it's super easy, or I'm alone with my burnt alternator at 80,000 miles?

I've read that I have to remove the cooling fan, but that's about all I know. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Make sure you have the anti theft code for radio/nav
Disconnect neg terminal, disconnect pos terminal
Disconnect fan motor connector and A/C clutch connector, then remove coolant reservoir
Remove 2 bolts and loosen bolt, then remove the A/C condenser fan shroud assembly
Remove drive belt
Disconnect alt connector and blk wire from alt
Remove bolt securing the harness bracket
Remove mounting bolt and alt bracket bolt, then remove alt.
