What year is " S " reg. - i've had 4 corsa's and had to change the dash lamps on the first three - if I knew the year of manufacture I could advise.
PS. they dont use letters for the year of manufacture where i live in the way they do in G. Britain
it will be a 1998/99 model
Question Author
The year of manufacture is 1999
I had started to write and explain how to change the lamps - but to be honest they changed the way the lamps are fitted to your year of car - it was several years ago and an absolute pig of a job and - i found the best way was to follow the instructions contained in a Haynes manual - to be honest I can't remember on how to extraxt the lamps on your model - but if you want to have a go I'lll explain the easy part first -
The two centre air vents have to be removed - they roll forward past their stop and should click out when you pull/prise them out. This will uncover the screws securing the clock to the dashboard - remove the screws and set the clock out of the way ( dont unplug it )
There are a few more screws ot remove and the knobs on the left and right but not the centre heater control have to be removed - best way I found was to use a cloth with a pair of vice-grips - as for the rest you'll have to use your ingenuity - as I can't remeber anymore past that

Thanks for your advice, I will give it a go, and will also buy a Haynes Manual, thanks once again
