Default DIY Replace starter instructions??????

Is there a thread with pictures on how to change out the starter for a C6 vette?
I searched and couldn't locate it if there is one.

Disconnect the battery, disconnect the wires on the starter solenoid. Remove the two bolt that attach the starter to the engine. Reverse to install.

Index windows when done.

Owners manual is your friend.

Roll down until it makes a noise and then up until it makes a noise., repeat for other window.

If you don't have an owners manual you can get an electronic version online fir free.

Enjoy!

I saw your other thread. I would recommend you take it to a shop before you spend money on parts that you may not need. Since you are in Dallas, there are ton of people that work on Corvettes. My favorite is LG in Plano just west of 75 and south of Spring Creek.
