Hi, looking at the Haynes manual it lists the steps but doesn't mention anything about the black plastic trim which appears to be clipped onto tabs where the top of the bulkhead meets the bodywork to the bottom of the windscreen, across the whole of the width of the back of the bonnet. It splits around the middle of the windscreen. The pipe between the master & slave cylinder is clipped behind this as well.
Thanks.

Re: Clutch Hydraulic System Removal - guidance pls
Removed plastic trim hiding various pipes including clutch slave pipe and restricting access to master cylinder.
Removed air box.
Rotated slave thro 90 deg anti clockwise and jiggled out. Used light pressure via a lever on the end of the slave cylinder as rotating.
Removed fuse box cover below steering and above pedals. Removed screws and dropped panel above pedal.
Light leverage on cup to disengage master cylinder push rod from pedal
Managed to get large adjustable on master cylinder (had to remove small solenoid valve to provide swing access to end of spanner).
Rotate master 90 degrees CLOCKWISE
Thread assembly including reservoir out of engine compartment.
Then remember how it all goes back!
