This is my short list: - Undamaged cells from the battery pack (assuming it was still in the vehicle) - to use for a future battery gadget.
- Undamaged Hall effect device from battery pack - to use for a future energy management gadget.
- Any ECUs and their wiring harnesses (cut to pig-tails) - to simplfy access to 'interesting' signals and interfaces.
- One front or rear axle assembly (preferably with undamaged wheel) - for a full size spare and chance to look at the wheel bearing.
- Inverter assembly regardless of damage - to salvage Hall effect devices and other experiments.
- Fuel injector - more experiments.
- Ignighter assembly - more experiments.
