06 Civic need help

I've never had a problem with my civic before, but the other day at work I drove out to the gas station and got back in and it didn't start. I have power to all lights in the car, radio, and headlights. When I turn the key I get a click from under the hood and thats it. It also seems that the headlights aren't dimming when I turn the key. I tried jumping it a few time to no avail. I'm suspecting the starter went out on me, but I want to test it. I have heard of being able to tap it with a screwdriver and that could tell me if thats it or not, but I can't find the darn thing. I tried following the positive battery cable and didn't see anything that looked like a starter. Anyone have any ideas where the starter is or if I am way off track?

Prolly starter
If you follow pos batt wire, that will only lead u to fuse box

In 7th gens, they are under the intake box
Not sure about 8thgens

But they look like a brass cylinder about 2-3 inch in diameter
