Jack the car up and put it on jackstands, then unhook the battery.

Next, open the hood and look behind the fan shroud on the right side of the car. There's a 17mm nut. Remove it, that's the top bolt holding the starter in.


Crawl under, find the starter (it's above the CV halfshaft on the right side) and remove the bottom nut holding it in. Pull it back, lower it as far as you can and unhook the two wires coming out of it. One is a push-on, the other uses a 13mm nut.
