Remove the belt, unbolt power cable, unclip other plug. Remove 4 bolts, alternator falls off, refitting is the reverse of removal, bobs your uncle

Sounds pretty simple that! Tbh i bottled it after hearing you had to move the power steering pump out the way, left it with a mate for the day seens he knows what he's doing

You dont have to but it makes it easier and the pumps even easier to remove than the alternator.

Disconnect the battery before undoing the alternator cables.
