mate take this advice:
If a product says "universal fit" it actually means "fits fuck all"
This applies to almost every type of product.

I've just had the same problem and I got these ones:
Ultimate Styling Ltd
The drivers side definitely wasn't having it and they didn't go in the passenger side. The bit that wouldn't fit seems to be the little clip that points to the rear of the car which I tried filling for the passenger side because the drivers side definitely wouldn't go.
Does anyone know if these Rimstyle.co.uk ones actually fit?
And should I try get my money back for the ones from eBay?

The drivers one is a pain, as the charcoal canister gets in the way.
they will go if you wiggle stuff about.

Naaa, it definitely wasn't going in. I'll try again tomorrow but I'm 99.9% sure it wasn't having it. The passenger side didn't go in and that is supposed to be the easiest.

Nope - how can they fit in the drivers side if I manage to get them in the passenger tomorrow?

Corsa C ones would look alright on your car 'cause it's silver, I wanted more smoked ones.
