See quite a few Jap cars with them too, possibly be able to adapt one to fit your motor?

Right im glad this question has come up as i have a question that kinda falls into the same bracket.
Are all the rear engine/gearbox mounts for the corsa the same??Im needing 1 desperatly but my local motor factors said they are listing more than 1 part.Its the rubber part that i need.
Theyr is one on Ebay and if they are all the same then i will order it up and get some sikaflex too and get it filled.

Vauxhall wanted £50+ vat,fuk that.

Think I paid about £22 quid for my rear gearbox mount, I'm pretty sure all the rear ones are the same.

Camberley Auto Factors. The only expensive one is the drivers side mount when you have PAS.
