starter gremlins

Hi 129 forum people. My 95 500SL starter has decided not to turn over the engine like it is suppose to. Battery fulled charged, checked fuses ( including the one's in the trunk ) all good and power going through the fuses. Turn key lights come on in dash but started not turning. I don't think starter is getting power because headlights don't dim when I turn key to start. Trying to get to security relay in console but have not been able to reach/access it. Now just wondering if there is a way to access starter/solenoid wiring from the top of the car so I don't have to remove starter to check for 12 volt power at the starter. If anyone out there can help me with the location of the wires mentioned I will greatly appreciate your expertise.
Sorry for the long winded post.
