The starter is accessed from under the car. The transmission needs to be lowered to get to the starter bolts. It can then be removed from under the manifold. This is not terribly difficult, but if you don,t have access to a vehicle lift I would seek out someone that does, It makes it so much easier. If you need a manual for the car, don't buy anything but the Bentley manual, it is available through Amazon.com
