    I'd appreciate your help.

    I've read several threads and am still confused. I have 2003 360 Spider and want to have a new key cut from the original. Obviously I could get a blank 360 key but they seem difficult to find. But some say I can get a blank 430 or blank Enzo key and get that cut to work in 360? Is that true? Any watchouts?

    Thank you so much!

    Go to Ferraricarbon.com and get the carbon fiber key, it is very cool. Do I search for carbon fiber key to see some pics.

    For a cheap blank, go to a locksmith that has foreign car keys. What you want is a blank for a Fiat, iLco FT46.

    Thank you. I will have a look. Meanwhile, still curious if I can use a blank 430 key and have it cut for a 360 at a local locksmith using my original key.

    I just got mine from them and its the tits. Wonderful quality
    I also cut my Key and Houston Lock and Safe on Westheimer near the Beltway. Just go to them. I had to call like 20 places to find a place that could cut the key. It was like $4

    Unbelievable. Perhaps you shouldn't have told them that it was a $300 key! It is in fact just a key, so any good locksmith can cut it for you. I chose one that sells high-end Medeco locks -- this more-or-less guarantees that they'll have a first rate cutting machine. Like I say, it's just a key.

    Yeah, well getting competent help was worth it for him. I bought an uncut 360 key and paid top $$ for it so I'd have a "spare." I went to a shop to have it cut. It supposedly had a good reputation and.....they messed up the key! Instead of flipping the key over to cut the second side (or even leaving it the same way), I think he took it out and inserted it 180 degrees the other way, so that only one side matched the original key! This, after I told him to take his time and be careful. Moron! At least it works when inserted one way. So yeah, find a competent shop!
