I did mine a while back. Got the LED's from cobra. Think it cost me about 9 quid for MFD and dash bulbs

LED's are available off Cobra148. You need 2 for the MFD, and 3 or 4 for the Dials, depending if you want to do the odometer bit too.
Decided to have blue and white, as i wanted two colours. Had blue and green in my last car and liked the way the colour faded from one to the other . Also i already know of 3 C's with all blue illumination [Cause i had to do the fuckers, ], and as good as it looks, i wanted something a little different.
There also as bright as the standard illumination, but they look much better .
As for easy to do, it was for me , My car's the 5th C i've done . My tutorial should be done by the end of tonight, so will be online in a couple of days .

Rob, a mention of the source of your leds would earn a further discount
Those indicator stalks look very much like those on the B, are they? I still have the alloy stalks here
Going for a test drive tomorrow, anything to look out for other than the rack?

Grrr, I'm easily bribed . Yes i think the stalks could fit on, wanna send me a price .
Nothing really that i can think of. Listen to knocking coming from the rear wheel arch area from inside the cabin. Noticed this on a coupl eof my mates cars when going over bumps, but neith of them have been arsed to get it sorted so dont know what it is . At the end of the day aslong as the car isnt shagged/bent, then you've got no worries as it'll all be covered under warranty .

Rob (Cobra) Will you be buying new? If not, try and feel if the steering is strange, and see if there are any signs of new wheels/tyres and suspension on the front left. Nearly everyone i know who is under 20 with a Corsa C has lost it into a kurb and bent the suspension and other parts in the area

Its not new but its only 10 months old with just 3k on the clock. 1.4 SRI. Had a look at it in the showroom and it all looks good, but I'll see how it is on the road, plus I can get a better look at it outside.
