just rung two different vauxhall dealerships and both parts departments say they dont sell smoked side reapeaters for a corsa C but I'm sure theres loads of people on here with them. Even mentioned Irmscher ones and they didn't have a clue.
Any one got a part number for them,
cheers

Fair point BUT I'm sure there are plenty people on here who have bought them from vauxhall, and are genuine parts

You get GM ones, my clear indicators for the B are GM, so you can get them from vauxhall.

thats what I got told, he showed me the computer screen and the only "smoked" side repeaters vauxhall do are the Astra mk 4 ones( which are the best IMO )

my local vaux parts department still ask me if a 1999 corsa is an 8v or 16v
and cant seem to find any parts without a chassis number.
I now ring them with the part number, its easier that way.

Vaux/Irm did "smoked" side reapeaters for the C, but they weren't very smoked, and were about £40IIRC .
Get on ebay and buy some dirt chep ones (smoked or black). my smoked ones were about £7, and my "crystal black" ones were £15 I think 

Smoked (don't look very diff to standard TBH)

Black

Thanks guys, think I'll jsut buy some smoked ones from a local factors, less hassle. The previous owner has stuck some tacky LED jobbys on which looks awful, so I might have to get the bulb holders from a scrappy too

but i dont have the originals, the car came with some LED shite, which means buying lenses then spray, may as well buy smoked from the off
I will make sure they are corsa specific like my old ones on my B
