As tom said, it's a straight forward swap once the winder is off. Although unless you have the wiring already up there, you will probably need to nab power from somewhere - i ended up running a new feed from the battery, up the A pillar and then to the roof.

If you opt for the vectra unit, then you need to file down the back tabs on the housing otherwise it doesn't under the lining properly.

If fitting into a Corsa B then you can use a mk3 Astra electric sunroof panel which is a perfect fit.
You can get them from Vauxhall for about £10.

Cav one fits fine, no problems with mine when I did it;




No pics from when I was fitting it, but I'll probably be whipping it out shortly so can get some then...
