Yes, but what are you after?

 

If you're happy to pay money, the Quaife item is a good shout, if not, then a standard Xsara VTS rack (phase 1 or 2) is worth it if you're going to stay manual, if you're going to go assisted, then consider the CorsaB column conversion, or even the ePAS jobbies. A search will reveal all

You'll need to change the lower steering column to suit what ever rack you chose to fit (splined vs square drive). you'll also need to fit 205 track rod arms, and a way of 'blanking' off the high pressure take off and the return from the ram, and of course remove the ram itself

 

The downside is some people report the steering to be somewhat 'vague' when using a PAS rack in place of a standard quick rack, but I personally haven't noticed this with my Xsara Phase 1 PAS rack.

If you think about using a xsara rack I may be able to help you out with a phase 2 rack mate.
