I'm sure that if it fits it'll be fine, its only purpose is to suck air from the air feed behind the grill and clean it through the filter

There were 2 different airboxes for corsas. Old 1.2/1.4 8v engines had an airbox with a hot air feed from the manifold attached to it. Later models and 16v models did not have this. Will fit your car though. Rip out the flap inside but leave the round bulky piece on the outside, as you dont want to be sucking in engine heat.
