I won't argue with you for paying to have someone do it! I got to that point, almost. I gathered my composure and went at it with a different approach... and it worked! My frustration was with getting the new one back on! Getting the old tank off was definitely a PITA as well!
I did find one tool that helped a lot! extra long needle nose pliers! They enabled me to reach the spring clamps. I was able to reach them through the wire harness seal. I took that off and moved it enough to get the pliers in there. I was able to locate and remove a few of the camps that way. Once I had a couple of them off I could then pull the tank into the trunk area enough to get the clamps from the trunk side!
