Anybody have a Coupe quattro clutch master cylinder howto?

I needed to drive the coupe this afternoon, I'm not sure what makes it so much more therapeutic than anything else on the driveway.
Key in the ignition, my left foot found the pedal on the floor oops. This is no surprise as the last inch of pedal return has been a little bit sluggish since I bought the car in March, I've got the new master cylinder on the shelf and motive pressure bleeder, the only thing I'm missing is knowing what I'm doing.
Anybody have a DIY for this?
I've read one DIY that suggests replacing the mounting blots with three inch long bolts, pull the cylinder into the passenger compartment and lossen the hardline to the slave from inside the car.
Looking under the hood I'm not sure this is really workable as it appears the hardline will collide with the tie rod.
It looks to me that disconnecting the hardline under the hood is the way to go.
Anybody BTDT?
Thanks, Jack
