nothing to the rear mount. its exactly same as xe is. just the gearbox itself the holes where the mount goes, unless its been in a corsa or nova before, will need the threads tapping as there are none.

yeah dead simple. just line the mount up to the box, you will see which holes need tapped. then if you have tap set, or take it to a place that can.
