Hey guys...

I've just ordered a V reg GLS Corsa "B"

I've noticed that some corsas have rear clusters with straight edges on the inside, others have rear clusters that are more rounded. (these seem to be the ones that the aftermarket lights are designed to replace).

I can't seem to work out how they decide what cars get what lights. I've seen corsas of the same reg with both types of lights... whats going on? are vauxhall going nutty? do they just randomly assign rear clusters?

How can i tell what type of lights i'm likely to end up with on my car?

Any help would be appreciated.
