I'm looking into getting parts for this conversion over here in Australia. Vauxhall/Holden Astra's are pretty thin on the ground over here, hence big prices for racks, but the Corsa Combo vans are much more plentiful. There are also a few Calibra's about. Can anyone tell me if a Corsa Combo rack will do the job. Also am I right in thinking the Astra rack needs to be from a 1991 to 1998 model? Anyone have a part number.
Thanks
Steve

Does anyone know the measurements off the top of their heads?

Think that one's a BugBox from Germany.
