Here's a quick how-to off the top of my head -
-First, make sure you have plenty of brake fluid on hand (I think our car uses DOT 4, but don't take my word for it, check your manual.) A quart should be enough (one of those big bottles.) A brake bleed kit helps, too, because it comes with a clear tube which is useful.
-Remove your old line and install the new one - this is pretty straight forward. Be careful to not get any brake fluid on anything painted, it'll ruin it.
-Now, clean off your brake fluid resevoir then open it up. From here on out you need two people.
-Fill up the resevoir all the way to the lip (above the max fill line). Open the bleed valve on the slave cylinder (I don't have pics, sorry), attach the clear tube, and pump the clutch pedal 10 times, making sure that the fluid resevoir stays full.
-Now follow this pattern - fill the resevoir, open the valve, have your friend press the clutch pedal to the floor, then close the valve before lifting up the pedal. Do this over and over until you no longer see any air bubbles in the clear tube.
-Once the air bubbles are gone, continue bleeding the clutch in this same fashion until the fluid is down to the max fill line.
Drive it and see how it feels. If it seems spongy, bleed it again.
