lime green cable in your wiring loom round the back of your clocks. If not you will have to wire one from the coil.

Depends, some corsas have the lime green cable as part of the loom, others dony. Take your instrument panel out the dash and have a look. probably 90% chance you do have one. While your there, you can get a live-ign feed and earth for the counter.

Ok, if you check the plug that goes into your clocks you should have a green wire going into the plug - splice into the plug if you have one.
If you don't have a green wire there you should run a wire going to the - terminal of your coil to the rev counter...
Ignition lives are everywhere, they go to the fans, the radio, the ECU e.t.c... Unsure on colours - though I know that you have two near the ECU, they are thick red and black wires, both are ignition lives.
for the ground wire, anywhere on the body will be fine, so long as it's metal!
