Hey pal.. Don't want to be the bearer of bad news... But I bought one of these for my 98 corsa... Attempted to fit it.. Followed instructions and my dad works with electrics too... It worked.. Twice.. Then we got smoke from the control box... Car locked it's self an wouldn't even unlock with the key...(It was wired 110% correctly, though.! It seriously was a nightmare.. Only go ahead with it if your absolutely certain you know how because it caused me some big problems and I just ended up reverting back to key central locking.. As gutting as that was. Not saying you'll have the same issues but just wanted to warn you first! It might have just been the fact that I bought a cheap £25 kit! - Rip-off!!

Hope you have a better experience then me!
