Has anyone ever fitted a oil pressure guage, water guage etc into the dash where the heater controlls are.
I think it will look smart as my heater controls dont currently operate from those knobs i have some cables under the dash lol
Im trying to get some corsa c servo motors to controll them instead

yeh, has been done. most people fit boost gauges there as well in turbo conversions
Very common thing, cant remember the size off the top of my head though.

52mm gauges fit perfectly, its as if the designer of the nova knew that people would be chucking LETs in it from the start and needed boost gauges, etc.

Yep, Shame he didnt make it so the alternator would clear from factory though.
