Has any1 got any good tips on how to remove these plz? O and I also tryed soaking them in wd40 but still won't budge ....

Spanner over it and light taps might shock it loose. Otherwise brute force and ignorance usually works. ;)

Get a proper brake line spanner. A couple of quid but infinitely useful. WD40 over night also works well to help.
