Hi, I have a 2004 corolla and the starter is on its way out. I'm looking for some help asap. Where is the starter located and what parts do I have to remove to get to it?

thank you

The starter is located front side of engine on the transmission side. Just under intakes.

Removal:

(a1) Disconnect battery.
(a) Disconnect the starter connector.
(b) Open the terminal cover.
(c) Remove the nut, then disconnect the starter wire.
(d) Remove the 2 bolts, then remove the starter

Thank you for the reply. I removed those 2 bolts and the starter doesn't even want to move. I put some muscle into it and its not moving
