i believe someone came up with going in thru the passenger side wheel well to get to the bolts.. .just unbolt the flap and fold it back...
as for the installation.. its quite a lot to type...

basically
pull the tranny off of the motor, this can either be done by unbolting all the bellhousing bolts from the motor and moving it as one piece, or pulling the transmission off the bellhousing then the B/H off seperatley.
unbolt the pressure plate from the motor and pull off the clutch disc. also unbolt the flywheel and remove the pilot bearing.. either get the FW resurfaced or use a new one. from the clutch kit, put in a new pilot bearing, and the flywheel back on.. put the clutch disc on the special alignment tool that most kits come with, and line it up on the flywheel. put the pressure plate on and torque it to specs like you would changing a tire star patterned... meanwhile make sure the alignment tool isnt locked up. swap out throw-out bearings on the transmission and bolt the transmission back up..
Please note that how brief this is and does not include removing clutch cables, mounts or torque specs.... a good haynes or chilton manual can help with the specifics..
