Trampas wondered:

" How much trouble is it [starter] to change at home verses changing at a gas station,
or worse when your wife is driving it?"

There are many, many things that are easy enough to "change at a gas station" or do in the breakdown lane of the freeway to keep from having to pay for a tow...but I feel replacing a starter is right up there at the top of the do-it-at-home list of repairs. There is a lot of reaching/getting underneath the car involved and the allen head bolts that hold the pig on are, at least, always contrary. If it's starting to give you trouble and you have a good one to replace it with, do it.
