I got one of these bought as a present and have no idea how to fit it. Its definately for a Corsa 93-00 but doesn't seen to fit over the existing one so im guessing im going to have to remove the standard black cover on the Corsa Sport..Any ideas or help on how I go about this???

ive got the same handle and have noticed that the inside diameter of the handle is alot bigger than the handbrake(without the old sleeve on)
therefore i think it would be easier to slice off layers of the old handle and force the new alloy one over the top, squirt a bit of glue inside then tighten up the allen screw at the back , bobs your uncle!
this is how im gunna do mine anyway, hope it helps

You can use a bit of hose or rubber tubing to make it a tighter fit. I've seen that done before.

yeah i got some self amalgamating tape and wrapped it round the handle until the diam was a better fit for the cover, mine is a nice tight fit now, never moves thats the way to go and it preserves the old handle for when u sell the car or whatever
