so I only have 1 set of keys for the mondial and thats always dangerous. my mechanic told me a place to get ferrari blanks here in san diego but no go is there somewhere I can buy them online?? anyone have luck
Hopefully you are asking about ignition key sets and not the door key set??? Have you tried fleabay ? This one is original and blank but pricey. Maybe search for a similar set. http://www.ebay.com/itm/FERRARI-F40-F50-308-328-DINO-IGNITION-LOCK-KEY-BLANK-NEW-/130683477597?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item1e6d579e5d&vxp=mtr#ht_484wt_1180 You can contact Daniel at RicambiAmerica and ask, not sure if they carry a more plain metal version just to keep as a spare. http://www.ricambiamerica.com/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=blank%20key&sort=3a&&page=1 Image Unavailable, Please Login
Daniel: I was able to get ignition keys locally, these are Ilco X152 FT46 marked "For Fiat" on the reverse side. Unlike the key Soucorp shows, these have two grooves running down their length, and the key is cut symmetrically on both sides, so if yours has the two grooves the X152 might work. The person grinding the keys should be able to tell right away. Door locks are a little more difficult, but Silca AF4D and AF4B are possible candidates. Mine matched a Silca AF4D. If you do a google image search you should be able to determine which one it is. My car is a few years older than yours, things might have changed in the intervening years. My original key ignition key is steel, and a locksmith friend said going to a brass key would extend the life of the lock -- he pointed out that keys are much easier to replace than locks.
Keys4classics.com. In Australia, but quick and not too expensive. Save the $$$ for "NOS" blanks and go on a nice road trip with your baby!
That e-bay price is ridiculous and way over priced. I priced a direct official replacement from my Ferrari dealer, full cut by vin number, brand new, official etc. and it was in the range of 200-300 or so. So, 400 for a blank is a joke! Cheers Dave
I have many blanks for my 308. Can check when the mondial is here if it's the same. I can get some for you if they fit. Let me know.
Steve (westyguy) did a set for me. Very nice, ignition had a rubber head (although no horsey and no folding key). He was easy to deal with and pricing was very un Ferrari like, a welcome change!!! Regards, Jerry
Are you looking specifically for the folding key? Or just any that will fit? As Mike (soucorp) stated, blank folding keys are pretty pricey when they come available. I sourced mine the hard way for about 2/3s the price of the single one on ebay. Image Unavailable, Please Login
For key that fits go to an older local key shop and they will likely have Fiat blanks that work. That is where I got mine--same blanks as X1/9--about $3 per key cut.
I purchased a Fiat key at a locksmith. It is an ilco X152 FT46. I also purchased a blank key from ferrparts. It is a Borkey 1328L. Both work for the ignition. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I've been running around with only 1 set of keys so after gathering info from the many posts here, i ordered a set from 'Keys4classics.com'. I set @ 38.95 including shipping from Australia. I just took a phone pic of my keys and emailed it in. 3 weeks later, a nice set of spare keys arrived. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Earlier this year there was a seller on ebay for an uncut F1 key that seem to have fit a Mondial : http://www.ebay.com/itm/Blank-UNCUT-KEY-FERRARI-348-355-360-456-550-575-Testarossa-512-Mondial-T-/230814711340?_trksid=p2047675.l2557&_trkparms=algo=SIC.NPJS&its=I&itu=UA&otn=5&pmod=230813108149&ps=63&clkid=102823914539945243&nma=true&si=MyQG%2FDAoHOznbErL8ZpYHcbTf%2BY%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc Image Unavailable, Please Login
If the key is the same as the later models you can get a pair here for very little: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=321003394137
I have a couple of Mondial / 360 key FOB's left (single and double cut), also have the original rubber style Mondial keys all are uncut (no folders). Door keys are #2 through #8. Ping my mail box if interested.
If you send me you email along with what your looking for, I can send you pics. I'm not set up to post pic's.
