Damo,

You've made the assumption that thieves are intelligent.

To them they'll see something that they can wire up to fit their Nova.

Surely the speedo on the steering column would give it away

Many years ago my Delta HF Turbo was broken into. The radio was the exctractable type, and had been removed leaving a gaping hole. This didn't stop them smashing the window though. All they stole was an empty petrol voucher booklet that they could have got free at any petrol station. Thick or what?

Damo, You've made the assumption that thieves are intelligent. To them they'll see something that they can wire up to fit their Nova. There is just one moon and one golden sun; And a smile mean friendship to ev'ryone; Through the mountains divide, and the oceans are wide; It's a small world after all.
