Hi,

Replacing the starter motor isn't too difficult. Just make sure the battery is disconnected before you start working on it.

To get you started, here is a link that explains how, in general, one is replaced. Take a look through it first, it will help explain things better.

If you look below, I attached the directions specific to your vehicle. Take a look through them and let me know if you have questions.

Take care and let me know if this helps.
