Go to a good locksmith and ask - Alfa type blank - multiple threads - it gets more complex if you need a genuine Ferrari key
Hi Bruno, Like greyboxer said, take your original keys to a full fledged professional lock and key shop. Tho old pros have blanks laying around that would never be found in a Home Depot key department. That's what I did so as to create duplicate key set # 3 for Rachel. Cheers, Hank
Just to add to this Chaps. I copy the keys and use the copies only. The original keys stay at home and are used as patterns. You cannot make copy keys from copies they almost never work. Regards Bell
A couple of year ago we decided to get new keys made so we had spares, and so we could keep the originals safely stored. We found the blanks at KeyBlankSales.com Web's LARGEST Wholesale and Retail Key Blank and Key Machine SuperStore - Home, they are the Fiat F91C8 for the door, and Fiat FT46 for the ignition, both from ilco. They were cheap enough that we ordered several of each blank, just in case. Our local professional locksmith shop was able to make copies using those blanks. I just checked the website and they still have them in stock. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Home Depot here has a key laser cutting machine. They make perfect copies from copies. My old locksmith cannot match it by using his cutting machine. Board member Westyguy had at one time the folding ignition key blanks with little horsey's on them....... Regards, Jerry
QUALITY KEYS FOR Ferrari 208, 308, Dino etc This place has a wide variety of repro blanks. I used them for my Dino a few years ago. Bought the blanks, then cut the keys myself with hand files.
I agree that making a copy of a copy doesn't always work, but a good professional locksmith should be able to make it work. I didn't have to do it for the Mondial because we had the original key and the copies worked perfectly, but I have had to do it before, and a good locksmith can visually compare the key you're copying to the copy and manually make small adjustments with a file if necessary until it works perfectly, so they should be able to make a copy of a copy work. Of course if you have the original keys this shouldn't be a problem. The laser cutting machines are the best, state of the art, but some of them need the original key to sit flat in the machine to scan it, so the original with the black plastic top may not work. My recommendation is that you buy several blanks, and make three copies, one to use all the time, a spare, and a just in case set, then put the originals away in a safe place with the just in case set.
Can I ask what model Mondial you have? I need to get some spares for an 83 QV. Do the 308 blanks work for the Mondial as well? I would assume so but maybe not?
Our t came with one set of original keys (folding ignition.) I foolishly walked into a Ferrari dealer and asked for two more sets of door and ignition keys. They handed them to me with a bill for $350. I almost had a heart attack, but I paid it. Dave
Ours is an 87 3.2 Cab. I assume all Mondials use the same blanks, but I don't know for sure. Go to the website, I think they have compatibility lists for each blank.
I did order 3 times for Ferrari and Lambo keys from a picture of my key and they made them and they are perfect. No running around. Just a few very nice pics sent by email and I received my keys in the mailbox. Keys for Classics, specialists in code-cut keys for classic cars and motorcycles
Keys are one of those thing I like original as they simply look great! The folding and the horse make you want to look at them for hours lying on the table and they look great on every table These original come pretty cheap IMHO and I got two spares from this guy. One I created a copy and like Bell I am using that one. One left blank if I ever get another Ferrari Ferrari Folding Key TR Mondial 348 512TR M F50 | eBay
The original key is steel. Any copy is likely brass. Wise to use the copy, I'd rather wear out a key than wear out a lock cylinder. I believe the door keys come in four variants, not sure how many of these four Ferrari used. These differ when viewed on-end. I obtained some blanks for my car from International Auto Parts, but they've now been bought by Centerline, and Centerline doesn't list them on their web page or catalog.
I just ordered one from The Collection in Miami. You will need the VIN and proof of ownership. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Here is an original Mondial 8 key. I thought they came with folding keys too. Can anyone confirm they have this ignition key? FERRARI NOS GENUINE UNCUT IGNITION KEY RARE VINTAGE MONDIAL 8 SIPEA 95401146 | eBay Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
