Great for the price, could do with instructions though!
My car is an X reg Corsa (2000). No instructions so be prepared to watch a few youtube videos or read below. You'll also need a tiny allen/hex key (I used an old Ikea one) and a screwdriver. The main fascia was an extremely tight fit, I had almost given up but a swift kick (seriously) and it clicked into place.Instructions for those needing them:1. Using your allen key remove the 4 screws on the existing unit.2. Using the two 'prong' keys that come with the kit, insert them into the holes gently (don't push them too far in like I did making them useless), and gently pull outwards and back.If it doesn't work - mine didn't - I had to jam a screwdriver down the side of the existing fascia and lever it out, breaking it in the process. The keys are basically trying to push in a little tab at the back.3. Once the existing unit is out you can carefully pull out all the cables. You'll also need to remove the existing cage. There is a screw right at the back in the centre so be sure to remove this first. Then bend in all 4 side - it's only thin so no bother. Then pull.4. The cable / harness. The radio I had was taken from my old car so it already had a harness. When I compared them I could see the red and yellow wires had been switched (so red at one end joined to the yellow at the other end and vice versa). This is to ensure the radio keeps its memory. It's hard to describe and I didn't think to take pictures so you'll have to google it.5. Insert the new fascia. Good luck.6. Insert the new cage for your radio but leave it hanging out slightly.7. Insert the aerial adapter into your new radio and plug the cable harness into the back. Slide the new radio into the cage but not all the way. Now is a good time to test that it's all working. To test the memory, program a station, turn of the engine and remove your keys for a few seconds. Then turn it back on and see if it's remembered the station.8. If all works as expected, slide that baby home.

Good Value For Money
Ordered from RadioWorld for a total of £9.80 and considering Halfords wanted nearly £12 for the fascia adapter alone, I would say this kit is a bargain!Fits in my 52 plate Corsa C perfectly, Good snug fit. Had to swap round the red and yellow cables in the ISO adapter for the radio to keep its memory but apart from that everything works really well. Very impressed with delivery and the product, Would definatly order from RadioWorld again and would recommend this kit for anyone wanting to replace the factory head unit in there Corsa.Overall a very good purchase.

Good, but cable needs modifying for some makes
In my 2003 Corsa, the red and yellow 12V wires needed to be swapped around to ensure that the stereo didn't lose its presets each time the ignition was switched off. On some other versions of this cable adaptor, the red and yellow wires are joined with banana plugs, so that they can be more easily swapped over.Also, this kit doesn't contain the allen key needed to remove the grub screws that cover the sockets for the removal keys. I was able to remove them using a small flathead wedged at an angle, but if I didn't happen to have that, I wouldn't have been able to complete the job.Other than that, the fit was fantastic, the colour match was spot on, and I'm very happy with the final result.

Fascia unit
The fascia unit was a good replacement for my car it's the exact same colour as the dash so the colour matching is good the coax (aerial) adaptor is good to have and the release keys work overall good product but the lead is not quite so brilliant for me because I have re introduced my steering wheel controls meaning I had to purchase some different leads.

Good but wiring harness needed!
The fascia itself is as described, colour and plastic exactly the same as my dash..the keys worked perfectly.The only problem i had with fitting is that the wiring provided with this "kit" is basically useless unless you also purchase another wiring adaptor which connects from the cars loom to the aftermarket stereo, due to my corsa being an 05 model and therefore running CAN-BUS wiring..make sure you buy this also or you will not be able to connect your stereo to the cars existing loom.this is what you need --> VAUXHALL CORSA 04-10 CD RADIO STEREO ISO WIRING HARNESS AERIAL ADAPTOR CC20 CD30

Corsa Console radio fitting
As described, all parts included did have problems fitting the unit, this was not the fault of the fitting kit.Make sure you have the star drive to undo the cage bolts for the original sound system.When this is fitted it will not come out again without breaking the fascia.

Great Product
The fascia blends in really well with my Corsa C dashboard panel, i was worried about the silver being a slight contrast to the original dashboard colour (also silver)however this was not a problem.The fascia fits smoothly into the slot left, after removing the original radio faceplate, leaving no gaps and provides a handy storage space.Aerial adaptor and iso lead both work well, allowing most aftermarket radio's, without stork control, to be fitted into the radio slot easily.Overall a great product for the price, saved me a lot of money and helped to improve the audio set up for my car.
