How to: Replace M20 Starter easy!

I just had to do this job and I think I've done it the easiest way possible. I didn't disconnect any coolant lines, and very few electrical connections (I think 3).
The secret weapon was a 3/8 line wrench (for use on brake lines) I placed that over the torx bolts near the firewall (it may take some maneuvering but it fits on both from the top of the engine and will hold). I did the whole job in under an hour and a half. I only had to get under the car to loosen the bottom starter nut. I didn't use a single wobble extension, and only one 6 inch socket extension. The only tricky part was removing the line wrench, and that was easily solved with a light tap from a rubber mallet handle (due to tight spaces)

I have a no start no crank situation and from what I know ,So when I turn the key nothing happens the lights on the dash turn on and there's a humming noise but that's about all that happens any thoughts? I know the battery is good, not sure about the starter tho. But I've replaced the main relay and the fuel pump relay and idk what that relay next to the fuel pump relay is but I replaced that one too. And to no avail so now I'm kind of hoping it's not the starter.
