First disconnect battery. There is a bolt to the frame on the bracket for the brake line. Remove it and pull the line out of the way. Next, remove the rubber sheeting around the opening. Now you will see a few 10 mm bolt heads, remove them and a small shield will come off exposing a cutout. With the cutout exposed you can now access the starter easier. Remove the starter electrical connectors and bolts then remove starter through access opening you made.
