Default Clutch Master Cly replacement help

Any special notes on changing the clutch master cyl. Nothing in tech help. Special tools required. Looks like I need really small hands to get to it. Don't even go there guys . And under the dash? Should I bench bleed the cyl befor installing it?
Thanks

Nothing hard about it. Getting under the dash and contorting to get the clip off the pin is the hardest thing. Be carefull with the hydraulic line, use a line wrench if you have one. No need to bench bleed the master; but getting the air out of the slave can pose a problem..........my 95 is a snap, unlike the earlier slaves. What year is your car?

It might be a good idea (as is usually recommended) to change the slave cylinder at the same time. When I did my master I did not do the slave right away. It was less than 6 months later that I had to do it.
