The replacement of the starter motor on the Renault Clio can be done by opening the bonnet to access the components located inside the engine bay: you will need to remove the intake hose and the air filter box to locate the starter motor underneath.

The starter motor can be extracted from its housing by loosening the screws that secure it and disconnecting the appropriate connectors; once the starter motor is freed, you can then insert the new one and check that the car starts.
