Master cylinder Installation Instructions?
I have searched through many threads and not found the answer. I know it is located on the firewall...but thats about all I know about replacing it.
Is there a writeup, or atleast a description on how to replace the clutch master cylinder?

no need. for the best location I found remove the left front wheel and the acess panel it is right there in your face. hanging under the dash is not fun
or remove the washer fluid tank and the master just twists out after you have disconected it from the slave and pedal of course or the line from the master cylinder it self which you will need to leave it in and remove the line first if you going to do it that way.

no lift honestly I dont think it should take longer than an hour. The only problem would be (if you have to) disconecting the slave which you dont have to do, you will need to remove a cotter key which goes though the roll pin that is holding in the line and then remove the roll pin and pull the line out, Then crawl under the dash remove the acess panel there(two nuts and one star washer) and there is a quick clip holding the rod to the pedal slid the rod off of the pedal turn the master and it is out!

very easy to do. I disconnected the clip on the clutch pedal and slid the rod off then removed the washer tank - disconnected the line to the slave and twisted the mc. It is a little awkward to get in there but not too bad.
