LOL, a Starter is easy as hell to do!

I got my new one at Pep Boys, its like $100 (Reman) and you get $30 for bringing the old one back.

All you have to do to change the starter is take off your intake/air box, take off the battery pull the hose that goes over top the starter (NOTE: Coolant will pour out so I took saran wrap and a rubber band and just wraped the part sticking out and it worked fine), then you need a socket wrench with an extension and just undo 2 bolts [thats it, 2 whole bolts!!!] then take a pry bar and a rubber hammer and bang on the middle or end of it to break it free (if it's been there for like 14 years it's going to be fairly fused to the tranny), then undo the 2 connections to the starter, pull it out the top (wiggle it if it is hard, you can get it out), then just drop and bolt in the new one, attached the 2 wires, then reconnect all the crap you took out.

It's very easy. It took me only 2 hours and that was with a 1/2 hour trip to my mechanic friends to borrow a pry bar and considering no one told me how to do it I had to figure my own way. But now that I told you it should only take like 1 hour.
