Need your help fellow PH'ers!

Long story (which I won't go into details) but I now only have 1 key for my F430. What is the best way to go about sourcing a spare key? Buy a blank one and re-program it and have it cut, or contact Ferrari to order a replacement key (sounds expensive) or any other suggestions please!!!

Thanks, David

Hi David, Just bought a 430 from Meridien they only had one key . They eventually got the second key sent to me through Euro Spares already cut, but I needed to take both the keys to a official dealer to have the code reset on it . Dont know the cost as it was charged to Meridien. Hope this helps.

Nice idea, but they weren't interested!
