Default Alternator replacement 2004 S60R

I am in the process of replacing the alternator on my '04 S60R, I have the power steering pump out and the compressor bolts are loose, but there doesn't seem to be enough room to physically remove the alternator. Any tips would be appreciated! Thanks

Did you loosen all 4 of the compressor bolts?

When I replaced the alternator on my 04 S60, I also had to remove the coolant hose that goes into the radiator above the power steering pump and alternator.......there was just no way I could angle that heavey alternator around that hose........if you were able to do so, good on ya!
