As far as I know I am the only guy who currently has these (from the Corsa VXR) in a 9n3.
I had some plates made as per my thread.
They cost around £100 (material & labour)
Can put you in touch with the guy if your interested.
Or if you have someone else that can do it fill your boots.

Or is that just to go on top of my runners that my standard seats are on?
