Glad you posted this question.
I just replaced the starter in my Nissan Juke 2013. It took my brother and I about 4 hours. Definitely It is not an easy Job because there is no direct access to it. To get to it the following need to be removed:
You should now have visibility to the starter and sufficient access to it. Disconnect the power feed wire from the alternator by removing the fastening nut behind it. Remove the power feed wire from the started by removing the fastening nut behind it. Note the power harness connects both the alternator and the starter. There is no much cable slack, so it is tight to access.
By now there should be access to the two bolt nut heads fastening the starter. The one at the bottom is quite accessible. The one on the top is hardly visible but it is reachable.
Once the bolts are removed, grab the end part of the starter and rock it until it becomes loose. You will need to swing it counter clockwise to get it out. Slightly push away the radiator hoses obstructing its way.
Installing the new starter and the rest of the parts back is just a reverse process. Recommend buying eight to twelve of the plastic push-on fasteners holding the plastic grill and bumper cover as they break easily. Also, there are plenty of videos posted by good samaritans on the internet about replacing Nissan Juke starters you should watch before embracing the task.
It is sure a work-Intense task but a doable DIY project for those willing and entry level mechanics aficionados.
Hope my notes are of help as yours and the multiple videos posted on the internet on this topic have been to me.
Many blessings.
Cheers,
