    A friend of mine has a 355 Challenge.
    He wants to build a plate with 4 switches on it using the same switches as on the 355 console.

    1. Does anyone have some spares?
    2. Does anyone know what other cars used those switches?

    Thanks
    Jonathan

    Those switches are purpose built for Ferrari, so you can only get them from a Ferrari parts supplier. Ricambi American sells them...but you need to know what/how you want the switch legs to work...as they have various positions for on/off and some are momentary and such. Seats, windows, fog lights, etc all work differently. They sell for anywhere between $100 and $200+ each, depending on the application...they will have the various icons on them too...but probably won't matter, since you will use a P-touch label maker to mark things below or above where they are mounted right? That being the case, you may just want to use generic ones...

    Thanks for the prompt reply.

    Pity they werent in every Fiat ever made in the 90's.

    This site is really great for us who live so far away from large numbers of like minded people.

    uh, actually, you know what fits? Audi switches. They don't look the same, but they fit and work fine. I needed a passenger window switch for my Challenge, and instead of spending $70+ for a Ferrari one, I ended up just getting a used Audi window switch for $5. Hey, it's a race car! :)

    vty,
