Default Need advise removing clutch pedal/master

I am taking my manual setup off and now I don't know how should I take off clutch pedal and it's cylinder, and also where do I disconnect the clutch hydraulic line?

I will, thanks! Meanwhile, any written description? Is it hard to take off clutch pedal? Where and how do I disconnect the clutch line?

edit: found the video. He disconnects the line at the slave (in the gearbox), seems there are some clips holding the fitting, but I don't see any on mine.
Regarding master, do you have to just pry the rod off the pedal assembly? Then I wouldn't even have to disconnect the line, if it comes out into the engine bay...

I've unbolted 2 nuts holding master to the firewall but cannot push it far enough into engine bay. Should I just keep pushing and punching on the bolts from the inside or do i have to loosen or remove brake cylinder??
edit: few punches sorted it out.

The line to the slave has a "quick disconnect fitting" on it. There should be a small white plastic piece on the end of the fitting that you push in towards the slave and it will come disconnected. Its like a fuel like disconnect tool basically but for the slave line.
