did u use the old corsa frames ? and just pull the leather off the calibre frame and fit it to it ? or just leave it as it is and bolt it in ?
mines not the best fit, theres barely any leg room in the back of my car. not sure if ive fitted it right :/ looking good though. looks like theyre in good condition!

hi mate i didn cali leather and foam on corsa frames was a bugger to fit,the bottom part you sit on i just bolted in ,think theres a little less leg room but thats due to where the calibra mounts are and where the leather ends is longer distance than the corsa but i rarely have rear passengers so its doesnt really bother me lol,yeah there in good nick not mint but i got them cheap off ebay im happy with them just want the fronts in then should look and be cushty inside

ahhh wicked.. they look like they fit perfect. The only thing i hate about mine is that i cant slot the seatbelt buckles through the holes in the chair. im guessing u just have 2 extend the belts if u want 2 do that :S get the front wacked in soon! theyre dead easy 2 fit!! just dont go rounding off the tourqes bolt lol

there pretty good but they were described as mint on ebay got there and there not what id call mint were less than £100 so i didnt mind just slight wear to the drivers bolster not torn though and just some slight wear marks from use on the leather in good condition though wouldnt say bad ,iv guard x leather cared them to give them some good protection
