I know a couple of people who have used them successfully over several years. They are not perfect and take a bit of getting used too, but if you can't operate the clutch pedal yourself and cant afford an automatic...……...

I'm almost certain there have been threads on auto clutch products here before - problem is I can't recall the brand name, so I can't suggest what search term to use to find them...

I have had two fitted to two vans.
Not as good as a proper automatic but obviously works, the last one fitted was to a brand new 2015 Peugeot boxer.
You do have to get used to them but great in heavy traffic, I have a problem with my left leg and heavy start stop traffic hurts my leg.
Give yourself more time when pulling away in first choose a bigger gap in the traffic.
reversing can sometimes be difficult, if like me, you can use the clutch occasionally i would turn it off when reversing and do it manually.
I had mine done locally by a firm in the black country, but would not recommend them, I had to take it to Vehac in Edenbridge (quite a jaunt from the west midlands) if I had another fitted I would go to them. 
Q. would I have another one fitted? yes, if the van I liked didn't have a automatic option.
Hope this helps
Pete
