headlight bulbs just plug in like std bulbs. the 1 innner lamps run in parrallel off the main headlight plug, i think its brown and black wires that need to be connected and the indicators just need to be wired in from the indicator wiring.

What and not have the inner ones on at all? If so then you will see bugger all at night. You need to have both working to get a decent amount of light.

Hi,

it might be an idea to nip to your local halfords and buy the Haynes Max Power Manual for the Corsa. It is an excellent book.

It has a comprehensive section on correctly fitting morettes. They show 3 options for indicator arrangements too.

They wont fail the MOT if you follow their guide - but use the indicators provided and dont use the side light bulb holder for the indicators like they did for option 3. looked sweeeet tho!

Hope this helps.
