The alternator can be kind of a bitch to remove, and I sliced my thumb pretty bad getting at it. But me and a friend finished it eventually... took bout hour and a half.
I'd be glad to help you out since you are pretty close to me.

Honestly, the old alternator was fine when i replaced it.
There were no other symptoms, except for the gauge dimming.
I am not really sure if it would have left me stranded or not...

i didn't replace my alternator - i just replaced the rectifier inside. dimming/flickering has been gone since then.
