I am having to replace my alternator on my 95 seville sts, has anyone ever had to do this before? how much stuff do you have to remove to be able to get the darn thing out? the bolts are pretty accessable but not sure how you can get the dam thing out.

thanks

There's a panel in the wheel well that it comes out of. Take out the fan and unbolt everything on the alternator from up top. If you feel the need to move the airbag sensor, disconnect the negative battery cable first (which should be disconnected anyway when you're changing the alt). Take off the serpentine belt (you don't have to completely remove it, just get it unhooked). Then jack the car up (put the ebrake on first) and remove the wheel, then the panel. a couple bolts may be easier to get to from the panel than from the top.

Goodluck!
