Its longer that's the only difference but I cannot get one anywere only new but even that's not till end of week so does anyone know what else might fit?? If not ill just have to bite the bullet and buy new and walk to work for rest of week

any corsa rad will 'fit' but you will lose your aircon unless you get the specific one for your car

if you fit another rad you will have to lose the aircon yes
the aircon rad is smaller as it has to allow a seperate cooling rad for the aircon onto the side of it

Other than 1.0 12v, 1.2 16v all corsa rads are the same (other than aircon/non-aircon), But as said, Fitting a non-aircon coolant rad means removing the aircon rad and the stuff that goes along with that, else the non-aircon rad won't fit.

Ok so I got my radiator from breakers today a normal corsa sport removed aircon and everything to fit it but on my radiator it has two switches..on the left hand side if ya looking at it as its on the car?? But the normal corsa sport rad only has one hole?? So which switch do I use one like a little black plug with two prongs inside the plastic and ones a switch with wires coming off it ??
