Something like these should do it

http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductMobileDisplay?catalogId=10151&langId=-1&categoryId=318447&productId=1162351&storeId=10001

Although using screw tightened jubilee clips after down there makes it so much easier getting them on and off in future as it's such a tight squeeze getting down the back.

Mole grips are good because you can set them to lock and then jiggle it to remove the clamp.
