Default Tranny Removal? Does the sub frame have to come out

i searched but didnt really find anything that answered my question.
I'm going to be replacing my clutch and Input shaft bearing next weekend and the Transmission will have to come out, i've been hearing that the whole Sub Frame will have to come out first because the 7th gen civic does not have enough room for the tranny to simply drop, is this true? will i have to remove the sub frame to remove the transmission?

Could you explain how you got it out?

also 315 bucks on a throw out bearing and a mid shaft bearing? i hope that included labour because both of those bearings are only 20-30 bucks each, lol
