The speed bleeders do allow it to be a one person job. No gizmo required. It's nice, I've had them for about 5 years. Just watch the level in the brake res. The rears are done via the ABS. Turn key til you hear the ABS pump run (buzzz), press brake pedal til firm (for 10-30 seconds). Run out and check bled fluid level. Repeat. Don't run the ABS pump too long and give it some time to cool down between wheels.
I have a spare brake res. cap with hole drilled in top. I epoxied a hose to the hole and use my mity vac to pressure bleed the clutch. Pedal method works too, but can be tedious and requires a helper.
