    That was the case with my write-off a week or so ago. Assessor asked me to return the third row seats, spare key and owners books to the vehicle, and while I was at it take any personal effects not noted on the policy (his words, more or less!). So I pulled the pyro probe, HIDs and Narva wiring loom, UHF aerial and wiring (gauges and UHF were off the car), recovery points, Rola roof racks... if I'd had more time I'd have pulled the turbo timer and Parrot bluetooth out, and maybe with a mates help grabbed the four Superior rear suspension arms.

    The dual lockers and Steinbauer chip were listed on the policy, which was stupid, as it was a 'market value' policy... lesson learned for next time.

    Sorry to hear of your loss Scotty, hope you are physically ok... it will take one to three weeks before all the physical trauma of the crash really comes through and due to the impact concussion you will likely be unexpectedly tired at times too - so be careful with driving and any physical activity.
