It really made it easy to reach. I would not bother to do that to tighten the cap normally, but if you still have a problem, it may be helpful.

I talked with the reps from Iconic Parts (w/ BDR)... he told me the same thing, remove the side vent to access the clutch master cylinder. My BDR has about 4,500 miles and the MC is leaking from the seal inside the cockpit. I ordered a new one from Iconic along with a new matching slave....didn't want to take the time or a chance messing around with the local parts stores trying to match Mazda parts or anything else. Your posts were very helpful and reassuring that I will be able to address the problem.
