Default my TT caught fire on friday....

here is the after math of the fire. didn't have a camera when it was on fire, borrowed my father laws once he got there. i was driving down the road and smelled some smoke but thought that it was the big semi in front of me. then a couple seconds later i thought that it must be something else then i saw smoke coming out of my vents. so i pulled over and got out called 911 then fire was coming out from under the hood. a minute later it hit the gas lines and blew a hole in my hood. once the fire truck got there and put it out they speculated that the fire started in some wiring near my ecu.
