thres not too much to explain, just unscrew the 2 screws on the firewall, disconnect the brake line from it, and take it out... but make sure the pedal isnt connected to it anymore

***this is for a clutch MC install, i dont know if you meant brake or clutch, and i've only done clutch so...******

how do i bleed the clutch after the install?

i open the bleeder valve, get soemone to pump the clutch, wait for steady strem of fluid, close then top fluid off?
