It looks like u will have to pay like £150+ for new corsa b electric window regulators. The universal one may require minor modification to secure in the door, i honesstly dont know jus found it from google. Ur best bet is to go to local scrappers and have a look for some corsas with electric windows. then u can see how it menna look when fitted aswell so u get a double bonus of cheap price and a bit of gained knowledge maybe 8)

Or you could do it yourself like i did. Got mine out of a scrapyard corsa. Stripped out the interior completely, then ran the wires through the car (even wrapped them to the car wiring). Then wired through door using proper door pin connectors etc. Then soldered and connected into the correct locations in the fusebox! Jobs a gooden. I also did the electric/heated mirrors while i was there and ran the central locking wiring under the floor.

was going to say cant you just get 2 doors off on a scarpper one that had electric windows?
cant be that expensive and all you would need to do is wire them in,

could also work for the mirrors too heh

:meh: Just the topic i been looking for.

I'm from SA and also looking at installing electric windows into my corsa ute. I bought it as a base model, so there are no electric window harnesses in the doors. I have however managed to pick up the buttons for the electric windows from an astra f( looks the same as the corsa's one) what im tryna find out is whether or not the astra f harness/button is interchangable with the corsa b harness/button

don't use a kit, go to a scrap, rip the loom, buttons, handles, motors out of one.
Probably cost you £20-30.

before you do this, see if your car has the capability for leccy windows. Open your door all the way, screw off the black circle in there, make a note of how many silver pins there are. Less than 20 and you can't have them without swapping your loom.
