Default alternator help

Hey guys, I need some help removing the alternator. there's a bolt behind the alternator along with the bracket that's holding it. I cant remove that bolt. Just wanted to know what type of tools did you used to remove that bracket bolt.

Thank You very much guys

I have yet to need to look in that specifc region of the engine bay, but perhaps a swivel-socket might help?

It's 10mm nut and you need "star" socket to remove it. You could find it at your local store. Cannot remember what size. Good luck bro
