    Vehicle : Facelift Insignia/Corsa D

    Trim : LE/VXR

    Engine : 2.0 cdti/1.6 Turbo

    Year : 13/07

    The facelift has an aluminium frame and skin and is therefore weak and a pair of struts would not be advisable

    The pre-face has a steel frame and aluminium skin so can take a strut

    Don't fit the gas strut to the facelift bonnet - unless you are desperate to fold it.
