you need late corsa b epas column and ecu the c's columns are differnt

[corsakid]

i take it they just bolt straight up (the corsa b item) it doesnt bother me if i have to fabricate new column mounts but just wondered really has anyone fitted one etc and what is it liek to use live with and drive

[davidfox280585]

ive never done it but seen someone on here do it
they had to remove the bracket and reweld back in place on the back of the bulkhead also beleive it to be best if you run electronic speedo eg digis as they use a speed signal to the ecu i beleive
try searching epas conversion

You can get the adjuster bit on ebay cheapy.

Corsa C has a different joint at the bottom, on a B your have to shorten it anyways. and the steering wheel attachment is different, brb il get soome pics.

Your have to think Martin Kelson for these pics, Nova collum compared to a Corsa B EPAS one. He was a great help for me.

thanks for this which bit needs shortening the bit with the flexi joints on?

[MARTIN KELSON]

Yes the last picture, that bit will need shortening.
Really easy to do as there only held together with 'plastic pegs' so designed to break in case of accident.

Just knock with a hammer and will come apart. Once column in fixed in you can set the desired lengh and re-join together.

Cheers
