i have them also, only problem is with corsa b's is that they do not have projected headlamps so the whole headlamp unit is just lit up all over the place instead of a projected beam

That's one reason I don't want HID's for mine because they'd be blinding people badly and it's just asking to be pulled where I live :(

There's some morrettes on gumtree and the colour matches your car! Might be worth a look for £50
