hey, i did mine like 3 times and it takes like 20mins max to unhook everything and pull it out, and its faster to put back in. Jack the car up, go under it and remove the black bottom sheild piece. u will see what im talking about. then u just pull it out from under there. Move it around by the fan and it should just pull right out.

i didnt jack my car at all. jus took off belts and fan w/ relative ease to put the alternator on.
