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.

Ok so managed to remove the clamp but seems there's another black clamp which preventing me pulling the pipe out??? I can't see anywhere to clamp onto though??
