Sports normally have the wiring.
THe GLS's and CDX's do, as do some clubs and sports.
The part number for the surround with the holes cut out is as above.
The button you need are from a Corsa, Cali, Cavvy.

Might be able to get them on ebay, but also scrap yard
There arent any surrounds on ebay, i had a look shortly after posting - or not that i could find anyways.

In theory you could use fog light switches I'd imagine

My X reg 1.2 Corsa has the wiring from the centre console to N/S footwell, I just need to add the wiring from the footwell to each seat.
I picked up my panel from Vauxhall last month for around £11 trade. It took ages to arrive from Germany though as no dealers in the UK had the part in.
Switches are easy to come by as Cavaliers and Calibras use the same switch.
There's even a guy on VxON that sells the switches for £2.50 with Led's fitted.

If you want to know if you'[ve got the wiring, pop the panel off and see if there's metal contacts behind them

Are you 100% sure?
My connectors were very very very taped up under the seats - had to pull half the carpet up and remove a few meters of tape to get the fuckers out

110% sure bud. This is the car now
There is no plugs in that loom running accross, athough everything was wired in on the GSi I stripped earlier this year.

Woah 
Mine were infront of that "hole" in the middle of the area that the seats go, taped up to those wires
If thats the case, just run 2 wires down each side and either order the plugs from vaux, get some from a scrappy or just cut the plugs off and join them somehow.

I've still got all the loom from the scrapped GSi, I'm going to take the seat part of the loom from that and join it to this car.

just got back with interior. and now got a few more questions
well actually just one. do i take the leather completely off the rear and put it on over the original sport or completely swap both?
also checked and ive got the dash wiring in the corsa but havnt checked under the carpet yet. took and calibra wiring out just in case tho.
also anyone know anyone who can sort seats out. the drivers one has come apart about 2 inches on the seam
but only paid £75 coz he sold the boot and the rears were a little damp which wasn't a problem because im only having the leather i think...

thanks for the offer mate i could use all ther help i can get.
ive put the new seats in but the thread on one of the bolts holding the seat/subframe to the car has gone after a getting a lil frustrated with it not lining up and giving it a few enthusiastic taps with the socket.
gonna get the seats out of the old corsa and just try and swap the leather with the fabric and should go in nice n snug.
where do i wire the seats to? ive got the wiring harness out of the calibra but the colours dont match up with the corsa.
anyone wired up the seats before that could possibly give me some useful info.
