How much of a job is it to change the tailgate on a corsa? How hard is it to sort all the wires etc. Anyone done this?

I cut the wires with scisors But you should just be able to unplug the plus from the parts, like the central locking and the rear screen. All easy enough.

You ideally need 2 or even 3 people.

Get someone to hold the tailgate up.

Pop the gas struts off.

Hammer the pins out of the hinges and catch!

Oh and to re-fit, simply reverse the removal.

Really easy!
