I replaced my clutch line, which runs between the clutch master, which is right by the clutch pedal, and the line to the clutch slave. What I wish I'd done is tied a piece of string to the line before pulling it through the firewall; then I could have used this string to pull the new clutch line through. The line pulls out from the interior of the car, so insertion is from interior through the firewall. It worked out OK in the end, but there was a lot of fishing around, trying to find the hole at the far side of the firewall. Also, it would have helped if two people worked on it, one inching it along from the engine side, and the other manipulating it from under the steering wheel to get it lined up right. Oh, and you really have to unbolt the clutch master (two nuts, 13 mm). And all the usual stuff applies - liquid wrench or equivalent to the threads at the connection between lines, while you're waiting for the part to arrive.
