to stop them rusting all you need to do is keep them covered in a light coating of oil or wd40

and thats the way up the instructions tell you to fit them, but i put mine on the other way round. looks load better imo
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!
