Anyone ever seen a Corsa C steering coloumn with inbuilt electric PAS put into a Corsa B or Tigra?

Is it tough to do etc?

Cheers

i don't know mate sorry. But I assume it has a pump of some description to pressurise the steering rack. It just uses 12v to power it, not a belt and pulley system.

It might mean i'm keeping it. It's still up for sale and if someone offered me 5k for it today, I'd take it.

But I ain't letting it go for any less as it's worth 6k imo. So if I keep it, I have to sort it's little problems. One of which is to get the Aircon working and for this I need to put the aircon pump where the PAS one is now.

got the steering column changed and adjusted, took them half a day to get 1 in stock and fit..good service, problem is it would have cost £550 if it wasnt done thru warranty, then took it back again this morning cost the steering needed to be adjusted as it was not straight
