You will need a socket wrench with an extension and regular box end wrenches to remove wiring from the starter and battery.

Hi there,
Where is the Jaguar starter? I heard that I have to change the started laying under the car and is difficult. Is this true? Any tips?

You are right under car could be considered difficult and dirty job. That's why we charge $90 hr labor.
Only tip I can give is use jack stands and car cold your going to be real close to exhaust pipes.
