there are two bolts that hold it in, just remove the battery negitive terminal then remove wires from starter then remove the bolts and out it comes good luck.

The starter is located between the engine and the firewall. Behind the engine. The easy way to get to it is by going underneath the car. Make sure you do this safely using jack stands and wheel blocks. The starter is bolted to the transmission housing.

The starter is located on the transmission. It is near the fire wall mounted in the transmission. You will have to remove the air cleaner housing to get to it. It is held in with two bolts.
