Bolt Confusion: A/C Compressor Bracket 900 1994

I have a '94 945T with the B230FT.

At 95K I am replacing the alternator belt (2nd time in 2 years...that's another subject, and yes, the push-in bushings seem fine, so I am guessing maybe the NAPA belt was defective and am switching to a Goodyear Razorback).

I have the alternator 13mm bolts and tensioner loosened...no trouble there.

Besides the tensioner bolt itself, I can't figure out which bolts on the A/C compressor mounting to loosen. It's different than the alternator mounting, of course. (A couple of other posts indicate on some models they are 13mm bolts but the bolts I can get a socket on are 14mm or greater.)

I can locate a bolt that goes through the tensioner slider bracket, whose nut is 14mm and faces rear. That nut is immediately in front of a hard refrigerant line and would require a very shallow socket on probably a 3/8 drive to move...wiggler or no wiggler.

Any tips greatly appreciated. I am especially frustrated because I can't remember how on earth I did it two years ago!!
