I have a 5 door corsa B GLS and want a spoiler.
Point 1 - what are the differences between the tailgate on a 3/5 door corsa B?
Point 2 - I have ben told certain 3 door ones will fit with some slight work - thoughts please.
Point 3 - I want a big one but not to big, any suggestions?
Point 4 - What other makes would fit like Pug or Saxo or whatever?
Point 5 - Any other ways in which u can help me please do

Just got the PI one, its quite big, but not too big. Direct fit to the 5 door, although i havent had it fitted yet.
Got it from PVD £69, there is a pic in their catalogue, and prob on their website.

Don't be so bloody cheeky. The shape is different bu if i have a spoiler that is attached to the top it is not imvolved wit hthe shape just the top bit.
Went to bodyshops today and they didn't know about much of a difference.
As usuall everyone says different things which doesn't really help me!!!

This is my car at the mo(corsa b 5 door)
and this is my mates Saxo VTR which came with standard spoiler(brand new, 3 door).
Most saxo's with the Dimma spoiler are VTR's so i didn't know if that helped the fit or not.
What u think?

the spoiler either fits through the rear window on mk2's or at either side of the tailgate at the top of mk1's and rests on the window.
option one is out the window on your car and i'm pretty sure two is aswell.
