Thats because the hole is too big. It will need filling and re drilling to fit the Corsa spindle.

Is well easy Rob! Pop over to mine one night with the wiper and some metal filler and I'll sort it out for you.

I had the zafira wirper on my corsa (check garage) but the metal filler didn't stay - the holes too wide and there asn't enough left to grip the spindle - when the wiper moved it wore the filler away - tried twice , now given up. Originals the best. was tmepted to try the Fiat ones, but can't be bothered now.

You really need to leave it to set for about 48hrs.

Your much better off with the Fiat Marea estate (station wagon) rear wiper - £19 from a Fiat dealer parts dept.
It goes staight on in 2 secs, fits perfectly and is the right size and leangth for the Corsa too.
I've had mine for ages.
