if you already have rear speakers in your corsa, wiring them up will be dead easy. Just take new wires from the existing wires to make em go. 
 
Use a jigsaw with a decent blade, and make sure you make a template

using an MDF shelf will improve the sound aswell.

yeah. Why cut your shelf, just wait and buy a sheet of 18mm mdf for £10 and carpet for £15 or so. Not worth cutting the original incase, like me, you wanna move them in the future.

cutting ur original shelf is risky as it can be hard to find a replacement if needed

Don't cut ur original shelf cos there £140 to buy from Vauxhall and it's near impossible to find one at the scrappies, I know cos I did the same thing and now regretted it and still waiting for one.....
