   ok.. ive had to fit a new alternator as the bearings gone in mine.
   he old one in the pic below hasthe 2-pin plug...
   
   the new alternator doesnt have this plug, but the 2 connection bolts
   
   I have read on the forums that there is a way round this.. but as you can see the wire colors dont look like they match the red and white stated in other threads.
   
   the other thing ive noticed is the bat light is on... and i can here the pas whinning away lol..
   
   i have done this post so i can be very clear on what i need to do with this 2 wres from the plug.

   so as the new replacement alternator you've got the older single plug type, why not get the correct one for the car? saves fucking about
