    nooo sorry.

    basicaly the standard gaitor fit right around and underneath the center console, but the one i got from halford, a ripspeed one, isnt as big as the standard one but fits around the bottom of the gear leaver. but it misses like 2 inches off the center console and all you can see is the horrible yellow foam shizzle.

    which means you havnt got a corsa B one...you;ve been supplied with the wrong one...take that crap back and keep your monies...standard is way better than Jipspeed

    ebay....no real point in modifying it, i still bet it wont fit...going by what you have said, it sounds like it will need extra material sewn in to make up for the gap

    lmao the ripspeed one leaves a huge gap, **** knows how they ever sold one let alone keep up production, **** stick on crap should remain in halfrauds, refit the standard one, it's leather and fits!

    There's a few people making good leather ones on ebay - do a search. I've bought a couple to replace old cracked and peeling standard ones. Basically they are an exact copy of a standard one, but in nice leather instead of the plastic leather-lookalike stuff you get as standard.
