This is gonna be just lame text, but here goes:

Disconnect battery
Take off the serp belt
Jack the car up
Take off the 3 bolts on the front, I believe they are 15mm.
There is one on the back holding the wire on, its 13mm, and another 15mm.
When you get them all loosened be careful because there is a plug attached on top of the alternator underneath the power steering pump. Reach up there and unplug it before letting the alternator drop or you will break the wire. On mine it helped to remove the splash guard thing on the side also as it lets you get better access to the rear bolts.
