The year was 1993, it was a strange time out there....:lol:

Air con wasnt an extra until after the GSi's stopped production.

Electric windows/mirrors and sunroof were the only GSi options

Yeah mine had a sunroof, electric windows, and electric mirrors, PAS, ABS.

Only thing it did'nt have was Air Con which I believe was in a optional extra.

Hence my dumbfoundment! My SR has electric windows, central locking and valet mirrors (e.g. with lights) on the sun visors.

So I was expecting the same if not more with the Corsa GSi - bizarre.

Thanks guys! I was worried for a bit that my "GSi" was a clevery kitted "Club" with a C16XE transplant or something :lol:

Colin J, funny thing is I'd been in it about 3 times before I bought it, but after I'd bought it, literally 5 seconds into the first drive I went for the window switches and was like * W T F * ?!!

you will have the correct wiring in the loom, so just look for any 3 door donor (GLS, SRi, Sport, another GSi)

Not all GSIs have electric windows. Was an optional extra from new.

You can fit them though.

Any info on this? What donor cars do I need to be looking for in order to upgrade mine to have electric windows?

Cheers :thumbs:
