First make sure you have the right cover! If your car is a 2004 the alternator cover will not fit! Just have a buddy help you! Take pressure off the idler arm pulley belt, pop off both alternator bolts and reinstall. No big deal. Some people disconnect battery, I did not!
Thanks SLIK It's an '01. Should fit.
By idler...do you mean the belt tensioner? I have that cover also, but it hasn't arrived yet. I guess I should wait instead of doing it twice.
