Ideally you don't end up with much Corsa subframe left as it makes the seat really high.
Are you keeping the carpet?
If you fancy getting proper involved, take a look here - http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=586846&page=17
Otherwise you need some bolt-on solution that uses the original hooks and holes. It's probably actually easier to cut and weld in terms of the amount of engineering/thought. Obviously depends on your facilities.

Cheers for that mate. I've got a welder and grinder to hand. Idealy I'd like to keep the carpet. Suppose I wont see any of that though cause the seat will be on top of it

direct fit mounts. Unsure if it will fit your seats though

thanks for the help guys. Are the 2 mounts the same height? Or have you gotta pack 1 side up to make them level?
