I don't know VB. I was thinking that the only real expensive item they took were the seats. The steering wheel ($340), the binnacle and gauges ($$$), carpets, front left Q panel, and other many expensive and sought after items still remained in the car. The radio ($288) front & rear Craig speakers, which I have seen sell between $5-$20 (each) were taken. To me, this looks like the typical anonymous car jacking where the thief takes the seats, sound system (radio & speakers), wheels, and any personal information or personal effects of value that can be hocked in a pawn shop. Car thefts in Seattle have been rising quite a bit over the last couple of years, and most of the recovery vehicles the Police find, if ever, usually have the items I listed above missing?not much else.
