Thumbs up

Remove the oil filter -- you'll get slightly more room to get at the slave cylinder bolts.

The large end of the slave cylinder rod goes toward the clutch fork. If you reverse it, the narrow end of the rod will slip through the hole in the fork and you'll wonder why the clutch is still dead after ~1hr of bleeding the cylinder.

Don't step on the clutch pedal while the slave cylinder is unbolted.
