Clutch Fluid Flush? Pls Hlp

Need to flush my clutch fluid soon, I'm nearing 60,000 miles and it's also getting dark, but I've never flushed a clutch before! I understand that it's quite easy but I can't find a DIY for our cars anywhere, does anyone know of one such DIY? Detailed instructions would also work lol

Know how to bleed brakes?

It's the same method.

Yep and on this car similar to other maintenance items, the bleeder valve is right on the top in plain view!

Awesome, didn't realize that the bleed valve was right on top…whoops! I need like less than a liter to flush the whole system, right?

About half a liter if you're doing it twice.

I didn't even know clutch fluid was a thing. Didn't know I'd been driving old cars for that long.
