The starte is very simple to replace.

Fisrt disconnect the battery ground. Then disconnect the two electrical leads under the single hex nut on the starter solenoid. Then pull the small wire off of the solenoid (it comes from the ignition switch, and energizes the solenoid). Then crawl under the car and remove the two bolts which hold the starter to the engine. I loosen the top bolt first, and then the bottom bolt. We just replaced the starter on my son's car. It helps to use a wobbly socket (integral u-joint) on the top bolt retaining the starter to the engine/transmission assembly.
