If it makes you feel better, George, I've seen an old 3-page thread where someone put blue LEDs in and wondered why the display went blank. Blue LED light + orange filter = black.

My lamps have gone in display and controls, now I know what a pain it is to remove the panels, I need to buy a radio remove tools and plastic dash removal tool, good video

Great video. Thanks brother. I also like to customize my utility like yours but I haven't started yet

If my screen only comes up in very bright light, could it be that I need to replace the LEDs?

Hey can you show me where to get the centre dashboard bulbs as the description link isn’t working x

Does anyone know what bulbs go into the heater panels, what size do I get

If I'm trying to change the bulbs on the radio section, and they still don't work, where would the fuse be please.

Hello my clock display didn't appear in morning starting..but it appear in the afternoon what causes this delay..pls.give me advise thanks

Yes, it's easier with a pre-2003 Corsa because the MFD doesn't have to be matched to the stereo head unit. You can buy a used MFD, surround and maybe you will need the connection cable from the MFD to the HU (mine was already present - I don't know if the loom is there on vehicles with the 'burger tray' blank space) and it should work fine. Try to get an MFD from a

Hi I dunno if you can help but I have tried with the removal keys to remove the stereo but it wouldn’t budge. I’ve removed the front off and the metal front of the stereo is exposed but it still won’t budge. I’ve manage to take the T20 screw out of the stereo cage but I need to get behind the stereo to remove it. Any tips on how to do this?

some models of the 2000-2005 Corsa had an extra button which locked the stereo from being removed. My first car had a radio looking like his but there was one slight difference: an extra button with this small shitty "lock"-Button which I did kind of oversee xD

A few people on the Corsa C UK forum have used these and been happy with them: www.crazyleds.co.uk/select-vehicle/vauxhall/corsa-c-00-06

So when you unplug the radio and put it back in, did you have to put the radio code in ?

Yes in the description mate

If you want to change the base colour of the display(the yellow tint) you need to do the following: 1. open up the main body of the unit and remove the digital display from the front of the circut board(on some versions the display assembly is held together by a metal bracket and you will need needlenosed pliers to remove this by bending its tabs streight on the back of the board). Underneath there is a dark orange peace of plastic called the filter. 2. Once the old filter is removed you will need to replace it with a colourless(but not clear) alternative , a 1ltr milk botle is perfect and can easily be cut using the old filter as a template. Avoid any molding lines and cut 2 to 3 layers as there thinner than the origonal filter (also the more layers the darker and more deffuse the backlight of the display will be at te end) 3. reassemble the unit making sure the digital display sits flush on the circit board and lines up with the contacts on the board(looks like a rubber pad) . Once rebuilt you can now add any colour LED you like. It takes about 10 mins if you know what you are doing but I would set aside an hour if your unsure. If at the end the backlight is wortking but you cannot see any information being displayed the glass part of the display is not miking contact with the circuit board.

Hey up matey, didn't expect to find you on here. I done the cruise control and remap on your Corsa! If I had found this a couple of months ago you could of sent me the radio face in the post and I would of put white LED on that for you, to match up with the rest.
