Bolt on mount. Have to shorten linkage part that connects to the selector on box. Also need, well it's advised, to change the speedo ring in diff so it reads correct for the clocks.

Then need spacers for bottom arm so tie bars sit under them. Also need associated clutch for the f28.

A bit pricey but everything you need is included.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CORSA-B-TYPE-2-F28-GEARBOX-MOUNT-KIT-2-0-16V-C20LET-/160501818103?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item255ea762f7

Also make sure the f28 you get is a mech speedo

If you don't fit them underneath they don't clear the box
