easy, youll have to take off the door card, slide out the window guide rail, then unbolt the corsa one and bolt the vecra one in, you mite need to drill the backing lates or use the vectra backing plates, i dont know.

just a case of undoing bolts.

dont need to do that, just undo the bottom bolt on the rail and push it out the way, i used rachet spanners on the bolts on the handle make it easier! lol!you will have to drill a pin out the lock on the backing plate tho! or get new backing plates!

you don't need any help mate - once you have the door cards off, it's a peice of piss. I used handles from the rear of a 5dr corsa so i could use my own base plates. Also the 5dr handles are more curvey and i feel they match the shape of the bodywork better than the cavvy handles.

not that it matters much cause as soon as i can work out the circuit board to pop the doors from the button on my remote and under the wing mirror the handles will be gone anyway!
