Brilliant idea on the clamp, I've had one of these cheap '3rd hand' tools in my box for years. Makes this job so much easier.
Slip a washer or dime into the leading edge and I usually get the toe-in dialed too. Regarding housing cutting, even with a pair of cable cutters I usually just use my Dremel and then a pick to open it up.
