What are folks doing to remove/install injector clips? GM tool for that is $193. I think I’d just buy new clips and be careful installing.

If i recall, the new injectors come with new clips. I just carefully used a large flathead screwdriver and needlenose pliers to remove them. No issues. Putting them back on was pretty easy by hand. A couple of soft taps with the screwdriver handle to get them fully aligned and seated.
Also, i did not use a seal compression tool. It's not required, but prob still a good idea.
