just a few bolts, most of which can be a bitch to reach, cause they are under the dash.

you should not have to remove the lines to the master cylinder, this will mean you don't have to bleed the system later.

Some have found it easier to remove the front seat, but no matter how you work it, you have to be a bit of a contortionist.
good luck!
