Remove front bumper cover, bumper reinforcement with crush tubes, pull 4 clips out of RH Rad. core support to fender liner. Disconnect horn wire on RH side, pull Rad. core support out to gain access. Disconnect battery, Remove alt belt, 3 bolts for alternator, one plug in connector at alt. and 10mm nut for B positive wire on Alt.
