check the FAQ
OFFICAL DVLA DATA:
1414 - corsa gsi's on the road in 2008.
735 - corsa gsi's currently on the road and 436 SORN
Basicly you would have to be a right tw*t to break one for parts :rant:

Thanks to everyone for an awsome weekend at pvs!

i have a 1.0ltr corsa with no rev counter, and just the other day put a whole new speedo unit in, with a rev counter, and it just worked straight away.

i done this and it says that the clocks should work with no wiring what so ever, but mine dont? ive got the correct ones EVERYTHING works bar the rev counter? i added a signal wire from the alternator and it now works, so i think that sitcky needs to be changed ;)

matt i had a N reg 1.2 corsa a few years ago, i looked into putting standard clocks in with rev counter and apparantly there is a wire missing from the far left on some of them mine was missing so i never bothered, just got a corsa with a rev counter all ready in LOL, i think i would have had to lead a wire from the dizzy to get a signal to the rev counter, are both your clocks a manual speedo??

you just extend the pea green wire from down next to the ECU, theirs a plug that joins all connects to the inside dash loom, and a pea green will be going into it and on some corsa's not coming out, and this is what you need to extend to up behind your dials ON SOME MODELS on others the pea green wire is already installed.
