Either one will fit.
If your doing it yourself there are how to guides on here for removal from above and below, no need for the bumper to come off.

120 as it gives more Amps, same in all other respects

The original alternator is 14v 115A
is it a problem if I installa a 12V 100A? |

When in use you'll never know the difference. The maximum power required by your car with every electrical item turned on will probably not be more than half the output of your alternator anyway. |

Yes, that's OK.
It's the code for the 115 amp alternator. Last edited by COLVERT; 19th September 2020 at 19:02.. |

HI Paolo.
Personally i would not go below the 115A for the diesel. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ALTERNATO...97.m4902.l9144 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ROVER-75-...cBRfT#shpCntId https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ROVER-75-...4AAOSwjVVVoR4W
