it sucks when you get no replies...still having trouble?
first, i'm guessing you're doing this from underneath right?
second, the alt is heavy enough for your arm to get lazy on you if you're struggling to get the bolts through, maybe i'm just weak i dunno...just push the alt all the way up, line the top bolt up, and stick it through tighten it a little bit, then the other two will be pretty easy. as for the wire, i don't know, just make sure its taped up good, not touching anything else and hope for the best i guess.
not everyone can work on cars, but this is fairly simple, just take a deep breathe, picture where everything needs to go, and don't get frustrated.
hope you already have it done, otherwise its been two days without your car
