    After video. Special thanks to Ralph Pond at Ferrari Scottsdale for ordering all the parts......I believe it was around 4400.00 and special thanks to Towbin Las Vegas for install. Install was 350.00......about 2 hours. Worth every penny!!

    Old parts so you can see what all is replaced. That's the beginning, middle, and end of the story and just about everything you'd ever want to know about installing a LaFerrari Bridge on a 458 Spider. :)

    For what it's worth, I've just installed this in my (RHD) Italia, and it was far easier to do than I thought. I was fully expecting to start the process and quickly give up, having my dealer finish it instead, but I needn't have worried: taking my time and being patient yielded a perfect job, and I'm delighted with the end result. I also paid far less for the kit than the prices discussed above, even though it came from an official Ferrari dealer in the UK, so it's worth shopping around if you're interested in the same upgrade.

    I know this is is an old thread but figured this might be a good place to start - is there a set of installation instructions for this kit? To be clear, I’m not referring to the workshop manual, I have that. As a comparison, when Porsche sells kits like this there is accompanying documentation available to the dealer for the install (necessary time, procedure, any programming required etc.). I know Porsche & Ferrari are different but I would find it hard to believe Ferrari doesn’t have the same. Kit looks simple enough that I could figure it out but would rather know I was following the exact procedure. Please advise, thank you. -Dom

    Any chance of still getting these kits? Looking at a 458 and would not mind the "upgrade."

    Out of curiosity, did you order the bridge?
