Bonnet vent from
Astra GSi. Bonnet vents come in two guises - functional
and stick-on. The functional ones require the bonnet to
be cut neatly and the vent fixed underneath. These allow
hot air to escape. The stick on, are merely held by adhesive in most cases and are purely decorational. |
Monteray bonnet scoop - another variation on the vent | ![]() |

Alternative side mirrors available are generally limited to DTM cup style (shown here) and BMW M3 style. The M3 style are more expensive. |

Clear oval side indicators. These require careful filing of the front wing to allow the light to be 'clicked' into place. Some people prefer to stick the lens on with adhesive pads rather than damage their wing. |
Bee sting aerials
can be bought as a kit from car accessory shop or in
parts from Vauxhall (Omega Estate aerial with Calibra
wiring, and a Corsa blanking plug for the wing). A fairly straight forward fit, but also a fairly cheap bodyshop mod |

Three main types
of fuel/filler caps - two stick-on, one replacement.
There are two main stick-on manufacturers - RGM and
Dimma. The RGM ones are plastic and look ok from a
distance, but you won't get no respect for having one! Dimma are the only stick on cover people will let you get away with - they're made of alloy and you need to drill a couple of holes into your old black cap to fix it on. Both are 10 minute jobs. The
replacement cap (usually by PSG) involves drilling and
messing about - a bodyshop job unless you're skilled and
confident. |
Most people make Nova single wipers from Fiat Uno motors and a Daihatsu Charade wiper arm. If you don't want the hassle, visit ASW (links page) and they'll do you one for about £65 | ![]() |
