You would need the upgraded wiring loom.

Is your car a facelift or prefacelift? :)

At the front of your car where the fog lights go, do you have three sections (like in my avatar) or one long continuous section? :)

You have a facelift Corsa then.

And luckily for you, I also drive a 1.0 Life and I put foglights in mine.

So its definitely possible and I have all the part numbers too :D

This is the post I made when I'd finished:

http://www.corsa-c.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=65422

It cost me £111.92 using second hand and brand new parts.

Brand new you're looking at about £250.

I'll find you the part numbers now :]

The definitive FACELIFT front fog lights part list:

SRi Lower Grills (Parts: 13140016, 13136977, 13136878)
Wiring Loom (Part: 24415567)
15 Amp Mini Fuse (Part: 91153943)
Number 17 Black Pole Relay (Part: 24435922)
Headlight Switch Unit (Part: 9138120)
Fog Light Dash Bulb (Part: 90563896) (Optional)

The other two *slightly* important bits are the two fog lights.

They are different for facelift and prefacelift models.

The facelift front fog lights are just over £140 for the pair.

But you can pick them up much cheaper on here and on eBay.

If you need any more help, drop me a PM :]

They do indeed :]

I go into my local parts dept too often.

When I go in now the bloke behind the desk (usually Andrew) says,

If hes free:
"Good afternoon Mr Kirton, how may I help you?"

If hes busy:
"One moment Mr Kirton, I'll have some one come and attend to you."

It makes me feel well special.

Apart from when I'm with my girlfriend who starts laughing and as soon as we get outside she says, "you ****ing geek."

Correct.

Mine was £14ish I think.

Just find someone who has upgraded theirs to the coloured LED ones :D

Not really.

I paid £30 for the grills and £30 for the loom, fuse and relay.

You'll struggle to find them second hand.

So £60 in Vauxhall brand new bits for me.

And then £40 for some second hand fogs and £15ish for the switch.

They're cheaper from Vauxhall.

And also, the part number I gave you is for the SRi (top model) ones.
