The wiper arm may well fit onto a corsa, but i doubt the linkage would.

To get a full sweep (From horizontal, over to the drivers side and back) you need to alter the linkage that determines the sweep. Its not an easy job as you need to cut a piece out of oyur orignal linkage and then weld it back together. Only problem is I've heared varying reports on how much you cut out (ranging from 5-10mm).

Easy to do if you can weld, or know someone that does, justr a bit fiddly to get the swing right

Also if you do it DIY, You'll need to cut and weld the wiper arm if you want to fit a longer blade.
