i just replaed the timing belt on mine, which reqired removal of that, there is a 14mm bolt underneath the alternator, loosen that, then loosen the 12mm bolt on top, that will free the alternator and the belt, but the power steering belt is in the way too, and youll have to remove the power steering unit to loosen that. the mauel above shows that, i guess i didnt really need to say that, thought it may help tho.
