At least my tranny got a good cleaning afterward and I was comfortable knowing the fluids were fresh.

The "hot lick" to do the clutch bleeder is a short or stubby six point double box wrench about 3-4" in length. Mine is a Craftsman that is about 20 years old, but others make them. The short double boxes fit in the limited area and make bleeding the clutch a snap.
Another poster mentioned it as well, but you need to hold the pedal on the floor while bleeding the clutch. We use an adjustable hood prop to hold the pedal so that it remains a "one person" project............
