Ended up removing the toolkit to find that the hole for the manual release was full of insulation. I trimmed the insulation, reinstalled the toolkit and the tool slid right to release the electric parking brake. Turned it clockwise for 30 seconds and was done. Car now rolls and I get it towed for the key programming! Sent from my iPhone using FerrariChat.com mobile app

I have not tried yet, they lying in the safe, I actually got them for the button covers, they are a perfect match. look exactly the same. They seem to have the same electronics inside the boards look the same and i'm pretty sure they could be programmed to work. cannot see why not. Ferrari would have anyway purchased this from a mass supplier in china im pretty sure.... worth a 50 buck try if you ask me....if not well than abreast for 50 buck you got some spare covers
