Jim- You can remove the Corsa gauges, the black mask and the plastic gauge face from your dash. 
Use the original Corsa gauge "buckets" to mount the new gauges. You'll  have to make up some sheet metal
brackets to adapt the new gauges to the buckets. The new gauges mount from the back of the dash.
I've used other chevy gauges mounted to the stock buckets to get water pumper gauges in the Corsa dash on my V6 car.
I used 78-82 C10 Chev truck electric oil pressure, voltmeter and water temp gauges. I added some stainless
nubs on the center of the needles to match the Corsa tach and speedo.
