Pretty much all Vauxhall seats are made by Recaro.
There are 2 parts to Recaro, Standard equipment fit and then sports seats.
I emailed Recaro to see about a Vectra Recaro seat fitting one of there aftermarket frames for the Corsa.
I was told the standard fit seats were not designed for aftermarket frames.

I suppose you could adapt something like I have done.

Probably not.
The Corsa seat frames not bolt flat to the base of the seat if that makes sense.
I'll bet the Recaro seats are a flat base.

Is possible to make up some brackets to fit though.

No.
I doubt the holes would line up.
On the Corsa seat the frame holes are vertical whereas i'd guess the Recaro seat holes will be Horizontal.
