if you use a 22 spline shafts
the inner CV end will fit the 2lt 16v gearbox
and the other end will fit standard Corsa CV
so no need to get New hubs barings etc etc

wounder if you can buy them brand new? from Vauxhall and how much?

Cos if its cheaper then £160
£80 for Vauxhall wheel Barings
£80 for the hubs

may be worth it
