A little bit rough on startup, some white smoke and sounds like not quite firing on all cylinders for about the first 20 seconds in the mornings. once its had a run though is generally fine stop starting for the rst of the day.

Is that all they are.. £19.99 plus pnp?

Are they easy to fit as mine is doing the same, even worse now I'm on 100% veg oil.

Do you need any special tools?

An 8mm socket for the nuts on the top of the glowplugs, and a 12mm deep socket to remove/insert glowplugs.

Disconnect the battery earths before you start.

Worse, if anything. Dodgy plugs can at least be doing something. A blown fuse would mean they're doing bugger all.
