Just done this on my drive. I bought the aftermarket set from Horsham Development

Very simple job just make sure you prime the slave cylinder with fluid and gravity bleed it for a while prior to bleeding.

I think my fluid was old and boiling point lower. The one in the kit is better quality fluid, I think that combined with braided hose makes the pedal seem more engaging. 

 

I used a flare wrench on the clutch line as you don't want to round the nut. Reuse the heat wrap as the exhaust is close by.

 

This video helped alot.
