Hello,

The starter is mounted at the bottom of the engine. In order to access the starter, you will have to go through the front passenger side wheel (see diagram below).

The alternator is located on the front lower part of the engine. If you are looking from above, you will see the A/C compressor and the alternator below it.
The best way to access it is from the bottom of the vehicle.

I have attached diagrams showing the location for your reference.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
