An hour and a half with my right arm through the grille and the left under the intercooler with a big flat head screwdriver and my face pressed up against the headlight (yes it looked like I was hugging my car!) I gave up trying to undo the well and truly seized on jubilee clip.

So today I took a different approach, I threw money at it, went to Maplin, bought a multi tool with a bucket load of attachments, went home and less than 2 minutes after starting, this:



Just goes to show how much difference the right tool makes! (no silicone hose was harmed during the removal of this clip!)

Just got to wait on a delivery of new stainless clips and I'm back on the road again :P
