Did mine last weekend.
I found placing the opposite side to the split at the top of the piston and catching one end of the clip in the groove at the bottom and working the otherside round CAREFULLY with a flat screwdriver works. Be carefull though as one heavy handed slip and you risk piercing the boot. A little red grease and brake fluid helped too.
They are a biatch to do!
