    Correct, it's a pain to get to......skinny wrists required

    It's right at the top of the clutch pedal. IIRC, you lie flat on your back with your legs in the air, depress the clutch, find the switch, which I believe is oblong shaped and push it towards the back of the car. I think it's on a little ratchetty mechanism. When you've managed to move it out, let the clutch pedal return to its normal position slowly.

    Took me ages to find the switch, but seconds to fix once I'd located it. I guess this is most likely to happen if your foot slips off the clutch (for whatever reason)

    How can your foot slip off the clutch, there's no room whatsoever
