Anyone got any decent methods of undoing these baaastard clamps and doing new ones up, with only using household tools?

I know there's a special tool for them, but I'm not gonna buy it for the sake of 3 of these.

It's the only thing holding me up from changing my coolant tank. :x

Large flatblade screwdriver for removing them, and a set of Irwin Vise-Grips.
