Phoning up regal will be your best bet, should be able to get their number frmo google. Its around £40 quid iirc. Just ask for the gear linkage for a c20xe conversion into a corsa

Use the standard Corsa Linkeage with Nova metal bar and throw the conversion spacer in the bin.
Trim the first couple of bits off the boot where the selector goes into the bulkhead so you can get 2nd and 4th ok.
