It's located under the throttle body and held in by 3 bolts, problem I had was I couldn't undo one of the bolts so it was a garage job. It's one hour work so you'll be looking at £60+VAT just for the work.
As for the starter it costs £120 however if you bring your old one back they will refund you £40 of it. Best place to go would be Beadles VW or Volkspares and at all costs don't get the halfruad ones.
