They can be removed without taking the bumper off mate, My hands are far from small and manage fine.

Pretty sure its just a twist and pull number

you need the bumper of to remove the headlights . tbh i would use a 8mm ish drill bit and remove the screw head then sort the offending screw out once the bumper is of

You cant fix them. New they cost about £200 as well so id start searching ebay instead or contact the Clio breakers on this websites trader section to see if they have any.
