yep go in the boot undo the 2 torx screws in the handle then the panel clips off there are 2 8mm bolts undo these and pull it off.it's bonded on aswell so be carefull pulling it off.your better off going to vaux for a new boot handle they are £6 and come in primer.make sure you ask for a facelift one though

right i have done this recently for fastevoboy. go to vauxhall and ask for a corsa c boot lock surround from a facelift model as this one already comes primed, u can also get the paint from them as well.
To fit it just undo the screws holding the plastic back to the boot and then pull off, it might sound like it is snapping but its fine. then undo 2 bolts that hold the lock on and just pull it off. then just put the new one on.
below is a pic of it colour coded, i am doing his side strips at the moment for him

i didn't buy the stuff but it cost my mate £92 for the side strips  but it is worth it or u have to spray them on the car, which i dont think i would like doing. he will post pics up once i have finished, well i have done the rear side strips but vauxhall are taking there time to give me the other front one.  also they look primed as they are not black they are are funny gray colour. paint is £8 if i remember correctly, u2u fastevoboy for more pricing details

well they look primed to me, ask the dealer if u get them, it is only the bumbers that are differnt on facelift not the door shape so they should still fit on with no probs
