I have never heared of steinmetz coilovers either. would be a bit carefull with buying them as he has a 0 score on ebay and the ones shown are not for a corsa! they are also only height adjustable, not damping.

if you want a fantastic deal on some proper coilovers give me a u2u. Im doing some great deals on GAZ kits at the moment, up to 30% off the RRP!

Look like cheap normal shocks with coilover sleeves fitted and given a lick of paint.

I don't think it fits on Corsa....you can see by the bottom part.

Here is a pic from a corsa damper on the car:


And in this pic you can see how they fix in the car:


That one to sell on ebay looks like some car original damper painted/modified and with a threaded sleeve over the body, fixed on the original spring plate.

That's it, cheers!
