I recently replaced my alternator on my 07 SI. Very easy and there are YouTube videos on it. Good time to replace serpentine belt if its cracked at all too. I went with a used OEM unit from eBay from a 2010 crv and it's been working great.
My 2012 EX-L received a Denso at 80k miles and that was 2 yrs ago.
Denso only for me, in a Denso box.
New Alternator for $647 (+shipping)
I like the [Denso alt for a Suzuki](https://adventuretaco.com/go/denso-210-0461-105a-remanufactured-alternator/), which is plug-and-play and does 105A. That's a \~50% increase over stock and quite a bit less expensive than the TAE.
I got toyota denso brand from rockauto site for $255 with shipping included
Denso reman all the way. You get what you pay for here.
Replaced mine with a denso from rockauto. Unfortunately, the battery light stays on even though the voltage readings are good and have been driving like this for almost a year now.
On day two, the Denso overheated and failed, the diodes had burnt out. I replaced it with the stock 70 A Suzuki alternator, which failed the same way on day four.
I owned one for about a year. Loved the car, wish I could have kept it. That being said, it was only in drivable condition for about half the time I owned it. I replaced the alternator, fixed the air suspension, redid some vacuum lines, tried to repair the front diff, and that's where I gave up.
