run the engine untill its nice and hot then while its still hot spray some WD40 around the injectors and let it stand for 10 minutes , remove injector pipes while it stands and then pull the injectors out and try pulling the seat collars out while there warm and soaked in WD.
when i last changed my engine one injector decided it did not want to budge when it was cold so had to do the same thing and it just pulled out once warmed.

That is
Including vat and everything, cost + 8 percent
Might have been £32 but was around that amount
