    Does anyone know if it is possible to replace a broken snap on the boot cover that covers the convertible top? If so, is this a "dealer" part? Can't find a part number in my manual for the snap. Thanks.

    When I had my spider, Concours in La Habra fixed the boot and IIRC the part was from the dealer.

    I went to my local auto upholstery shop and they had the fasteners in stock--a couple bucks a piece. These are the same fasteners that Porsche and MBZ use and they are very common. They will most likely have the tool that removes the broken ones, too.

    SO, good news! You don't have to get OEM Ferrari parts! YAY!!! :D
