Did my 89 900T clutch R&R in March 2010. Did an extensive report (Clutch R&R of a first timer for first times). Item 14 is on the pins:
14. Now comes the tricky part, to remove the clutch pressure plate, clutch-disk, throwout bearing and slave cylinder as a package. Very tricky and very frustrating because of those three pins on the flywheel are always in the way! I somehow succeeded in removing the slave cylinder by itself, after that the clutch removal became nothing. If there is not enough room to remove the slave cylinder by itself, don't struggle. Here is a neat trick (Turbocon86's suggestion), knock out two pins from the backside of the flywheel through a large hole downwards of the starter on the casting. After that, a piece of cake. When come time to install the "package", leave one pin out and re-insert the pin from the front side of the flywheel, don't try to do it through that large hole. I screwed up royally on that operation.
The screw-up I mentioned was dropping a pin into the housing. It was a major production to retrieve it.
Good luck.
