Slave cylinder on passenger side of gearbox, easily accessible from underneath. Remove 2 x 13mm nuts from top and bottom of slave cylinder mounting flange, remove slave cylinder, remove hydraulic line to slave cylinder with 11mm spanner. Refitting is the reverse of removal. Then bleed the system.

It really is that simple.

would be a good idea to loosen the hydraulic line to the slave cylinder (the 11mm) while its still bolted on as it will be difficult to loosen it when its moving around...n you really dont want to round that off lol
