Did a search for this but couldn't find what I wanted.
I just bought a standard airbox to replace the crappy air filter, but I can't figure out how it all goes in...
Anyone got a link to a step by step guide on removing it (I can reverse the procedure) or putting it in?
Cheers

Might help, might not. But check in my garage > corsa sxi pics. In there are a few pics of me taking my airbox out and de-restricting it and refitting it.
Take a look

Had an attempt today, but am a bit confused with some of the connections, they are different to Haimsey's.
Old filter:
Airbox:
In place:
Where does this red tube thing attach?
Where does this pipe attach?
Also, I presume I need some kind of pipe from the bumper to get a cold air feed into the hole in the bottom right? Cheers

That airbox you have is from an spi model so you wont need the red pipe
The pipe which is hovering above the manifold on the bottom pic attachs to the heat shield on the manifold. You wont have one so wont need it

That was pretty easy then
Just gotta try and get the airbox to slot into the 3 holes now, it's pretty tight

It is a pretty tight fit putting the standard box back in, but once its in it wont move much.
You may need an air feed to the square hole in the box.
