Opti I replaced it a few weeks ago. Not that hard once you recognize what to do from the chilton's manual. Its hard but match up the pics with the car. That manual sux. YOu gotta remove the splash guard and thats really it. Just loosen the alternator belt pulley and a few other bolts chilton says and put it back in. It may take 2 people beacuse someone's gotta hold the heavy alternator while someone screws it in, but yes you can do it, me knowing nothing got it done in a few hours.

I got banned for being a constant tard.
