it is really a pretty simple fix. 1st unhook the "neg" cable from the battery. This will keep you from shorting out the battery and to get burnt. there's no fuse to the starter to protect the wiring from an overload. Then all you have to do is unbolt the old one, move the wiring from the old one to the new one. Pay attention to which wires go where. screw the new one up. On some cars you may be able to unhook the wiring while it's still bolted to the motor. This is a little less uncomfortable if you may be able to do it this way. in shims on your old starter use the same ones for the new one.
