All I need to see is the general area and I can probably handle it. I replaced the starter from underneath on a k24 I remember I had to remove the knock sensor to get to it.
Couldn't see much either. I have a 2005 MDX with a knock sensor code. Hopefully the sensor for the MDX is in the same location as the RSX. O'Reilly's and Amazon are about the same price for the sensor but there seems to be two kinds of sensors for the same vehicle - one that has a round connector with a blade terminal and the other with a square connector with pin terminal. According to the O'Reilly's website both fit my 2005 MDX. Totally confusing!
If you want to see how to replace a starter on these type of engines look up Eric the car guy. He has the video. You dont need a car lift like he has even though he uses one. Its doable. I recommend low arc ratchets and wear thin protective gloves not latex gloves.

Doesnt matter they are all shitty knocj sensors. The one in the video is the kind you want to purchase
Can't see anything too dark too close
Do you need deep socket or regular length?
Deep socket is recommended for installation.

What happened to your starter? It's not there which is why you have too much room to work with.
The starter is there.
