yh your best of getting a donor car so you got everything to convert it, you want the chip out the key aswell as they are coded individually to each ecu....

theres plenty people on here that would keep you right mate.
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!
