9-5 alternator removal - 8mm hex bolt time saver

I read all the posts on the 9-5BB and tried to remove the alternator from my 2000 9-5 Aero and am still struggling with removal from the vehicle, but have found that if you loosen the top and bottom alternator bolts with an 8mm hex wrench you can then remove them with a 1/4" ratchet. This was a real time saver and was the only way I had to remove the top bolt due to space restrictions. If anyone has any tips on how to remove the alternator from the engine compartment, other than what is already posted, please let me know. I am having trouble finding the specific engine mounting points/bolts to loosen/remove and procedures on how to loosen and lower the subframe. Pictures would be helpful.
