DIY it, I don't think a garage would do it... It is very very easy. The difficult part is making it fit in the space on the Corsa. I cut mine to pieces to do it, you need to extend wires and make curcuit board mounts to do it though - but, if you take your time you'll be fine. My dash was my first attempts at fibreglassing, it really weren't too hard at all...

Would take you about an hour or so to wire it. Then it will work, you can leave it at that, or you can make a custom surround... Up to you

I got one with no wiring loom for sale if anyone wants it. I think the plastic front is missing too, would take a tenner for it if anyone is interested! Just sold my other one with the loom to corsaboy87 off here for £40

i like them and was set at getting one but half the time the petrol guage is inaccurate and the revs and speedo cant keep up the the jump in numbers often dont give you the same feel as watching how fast your needle moves round the clock

All petrol gauges are inaccurate. That's one reason why cars are fitted with odometers...

Well then, don't whine about the fuel gauge being inaccurate, if you know that they all are...

No, it's a Mk 3 Astra trip computer... Doesn't cost £100 to do either.
