Small update. Got the map light wired up. Pretty simple really; the old live and neutral go to the middle light as usual, splice the new live to the existing live and ground it on the roof

Also thought id show off a bad bit on my car

Looks like it's had a bump at some point in its life :( nothing seems to line up on the front passenger side

Yeah it looks like it, I need to get the bumper off and have a proper look... Bonnet, wing and light also have massive gaps. Seems to get worse the more I look at it :(

Thats just the clip that sits behind the arch is broke, 9/10 corsas are like that because at some stage someone who didnt know took the bumper off and broke it, you can plastic weld another clip on and it will be perfect
