Hi,
You could try blowing them clear with an airline.

I found that a piece of 15mm plastic water pipe (the sort you get from any DIY place) works a treat.
Just get a couple of inches of it, remove the hose from the washer jet and push the plastic water pipe over the jet from the underside and it is just the right diameter to compress the clips and the jet comes away easily. No damage done at all.
