This is a question Bodge Jobs

If you can't fix it with a hammer and a roll of duck tape, it's not worth fixing at all, my old mate said minutes before that nasty business with the hammer and a roll of duck tape. Tell us of McGyver-like repairs and whether they were a brilliant success or a health and safety nightmare.

That was a common 'fix' on old Vauxhalls
The electric fan switches used to break, and on the lower spec models, there were a lot of blanked off switch panels where the expensive variants had their electric window switches and the like. So a quick trip to the scrappy and a switch was procured, and the rest was as you describe. Very effective too, so long as the temperature gauge wasn't equally buggered.
