Alternator

[richardspeed10]

Afternoon all. Going ahead with changing the alternator this weekend as it's never been changed and the cars on a 54plate with 70k. Cars a FF with a PMS air con delete kit, my question is when I'm looking on Eurocarparts there stock two different types one for A/C cars and one without. Which one do I buy???? Seeing if I can get away with buying the one without as it's about half the price

110amp for one with A/C, should be able to get away with the non A/C alternator seeing as you have the delete kit.

Thanks your a star. I'm just a little worried that it wouldn't fit as when I'm searching for alternators there all look different ha. Any chance of a few photos ov your car pal I also have a titanium and I've just ordered some 2118's in anthracite, wanna see what she's guna look like

ET43 mate. The fronts have 5mm spacers on though so effectively ET38.

Actual physical fitment i'm not sure mate. But in terms of the lower amperage one then yeah that would work.

[JamesBryan]

As above - They aren't a service item, so only replace if you are having trouble with one fitted.
