I would go the stereo route or maybe use the hole to fit some gauges. You could also use it to hold your man bag. There are many good uses for a hole.
Anyone else got any ideas?

there is a plate option that you can get that covers the hole where the radio fitted. i have a plate in mine. you do see 'em around.

few have the artistic flair that blue has with bog and gaffa, i'd go the hinged checkerplate front, hiding the place where you keep your
manbag.

Doner.
Have seen some shocking axe attack jobs on split dash radio areas but all you need is a doner dash,cut out the bit you need neaty with a panel saw,cut
the same bit in yours and weld it in and grind smooth,you will have a good as new radio hole and I think it is the only serious way for it to be
done.The good thing is a split dash is always in perfect nick even when the rest of the bus is shot .
