Use the handle to a hammer (NOT THE METAL END, THE WOOD ONE). Never seen someone break a starter casing with wood yet… ---

why the hell would a “relocation kit” fix anything. Tell your technician to go suck off a horse and stop trying to hose you for money! the relocation kit isnt going to fix anything. It is only merely going to move your battery from under your hood to wherever you put it (probably the trunk). This will cost $200.00+ :axe: ---
