Yeah, I've heard the clutch is quite easy, being right up front there. Does the radiator have to come out, or any radiator hoses or anything? I don't spend much time under the hood.

Fortunately for you, the clutch is almost as easy to replace as the brake. You do NEED a special tool to hold the pressure plate compressed. Used to be able to get it for $20, might be $50 now. It's just a hoop of metal with a handle on one end. I made a barely acceptable substitute out of a chunk of metal brake line. The brake line isn't made of spring steel and when you close it down enough to go into the pressure plate it doesn't want to spring open fully once it gets inside there.
