Spoke to micky an he said that the original 1200 servo should be ok as this is what he used on his.
so just need to sort the handbrake cable out

for handbrakes you can use combination of cav/astra and nova cables i think, or you can use just the cav/astra items but u need to modify a few of the nova bits to make them fit, change the brackets etc
