Can't usually tell when they're off the car because they should relax to the same length as a standard spring so it doesn't fall out when you jack it.

Are they Koni shocks and springs? If so, and they are definitely Corsa B ones, then they'll be 40 mm ones. It's the only ones Koni make IIRC.

Although saying them, they're more like 30-35 mm - that's how they were on my old Corsa anyway.
