If its a manual you can atleast roll her off. Automatic, your walkin.

It's not difficult to replace. You'll have to jack up the front end, and remove the intake manifold bracket that blocks the starter (2 or 4 bolts) . I left the bracket off afterwards, since I can't really see what purpose it serves. It makes it easier if you remove the battery. Unclip/unbolt the cables from the starter, and unbolt and remove starter.

Page G-34 of the online manual if you want to picture it beforehand.
