PARTS[edit]

Take one complete Master cylinder/servo setup from a scrap Corsa. Also get the strengthning plate below it.

FITTING[edit]

Position the Corsa plate in the right position, you'll be looking roughly here in the battery tray:

Holesaw or cut a square hole for the assembly to drop through roughly in the right position as so:

You'll find the pedal is far too long, but don't worry yet:

Weld in the tray when you know it's in the right position:

I added drainage grooves and lots of seam sealer to stop water sitting:

As for final mounting, I rotated the assembly to sit like this, as it cleared the scuttle and bonnet better:

PEDAL[edit]

Next you'll need to cut/shut the Corsa pedal. I used a Nova pedal:

Welded to a Corsa one:

And braced it both sides with thick plate:

ADDITIONAL BRACING[edit]

It's well worth bracing the assembly using an existing Nova pedal setup, as you may find the bulkhead flexes when depressing the pedal hard:

All fitted:

BRAKE LINES[edit]

For brake lines, I was making up some custom lines, but consider using the Corsa 4 way distribution block on the bulkhead:
