nope, want to try it though!
its best to drill on the left hand side away from the engine - so it doesnt suck in the hot air.

are you fitting a replacement panel filter aswell m8?

let us know how it goes... and sounds!

I have drilled mine I put about 8 holes the size of 10p's
I have spoke to K & N because I wanted an induction kit they said it wont make much difference because the corsa c has a good cold air feed and that a panel filter or there new generation 2 kit would be better.
Vauxhall said the air feed on the 'C' is better than previous models.
I have a panel filter (K&N) sounds good and moves a bit quicker 2.
