First you need to get the clutch slave cylinder out of the way. Just get it out of the way. No need to disconnect the fluid line.
Now you can get to the switch. Use an offset 02 sensor socket and a thin swivel head 3/8" ratchet. The longer the ratchet the better.
Pic attached of tools and switches.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for posting this. Mine has just failed this year as well. So weird to have multiple failures happening at the same time. And I do not park it in reverse. I have a new switch from Ecklers ordered. I've never moved the slave cylinder before. Is it a PITA to push the plunger back in when you are bolting it back in? Any advice there? Also, once you move the slave cylinder do you have access to disconnect the connector going to the switch before you start removing the switch? Sorry for the dumb questions, I haven't gotten under the car yet to see what I'm getting into, but I understand it isn't a fun process.
Thanks!
