Polished Alloy Strut Braces for corsa B. Should fit most models, I've been told 1.2, 1.4, 1.6 inc GSi. I presume they will fit everything except 1.0 & 1.2 ecotec, however I'll be test fitting one on friday.

Looking for £45 delivered

I think it will hit off the air trunk/ throttle body on the 1.0 & 1.2 ecotec. I'm going to test fit one on friday, so I'll keep you posted.

this may have trouble with spi engines as well as th 12v models hink most spi engines were 8v

spi - single point injection

reason i think this is cos of intake on top of inlet manifold - i may be wrong

I think it just misses the top of the inlet manifold on 8V SPi's. You might have to shift the map sensor if you have one on the firewall.

The fitting guide says 1.2, 1.4, 1.6 inc GSi. As I say, dont think it will fit 1.2 or 1.0 ecotecs because of the inlet. You can use washers to prop the brace up so its misses the top of it. Its basically the exact same dimensions as the RAID HP one.

Buy at your own risk, it definatly fits 1.4/1.6 16V's as I've tested it myself. Will test on a 1.2 16v next then an 8v if i can find one.

Got 10 in stock this morning. Fitted one to a 1.2 16V ecotec and it clears the throttle body air duct/trunk quite happily.
