are ready to do some grinding, use a needle nose plier and grind the outer parts of jaws flat. Maybe even grind down the points a little bit to get a bigger surface.
Get the plier in there and open up clip, have a brass hammer ready and give the C/V joint a whack and be prepared to catch the C/V joint.
The whacking is important because you give the circlip a shaking and it centers itself a little bit.
Hopefully you haven't abused the circlip, so it's bent out of shape because then it could be difficult = heavier whacking
