    Used black or red fobs come on Ebay quite often or there's multiple threads here about what to do but note the fob will need cloning and cannot be directly programmed

    Norm- Read this, take two aspirin, and call me in the morning. Just kidding. This will help you understand how the fobs work and what options you have. Since you have the Alarm PIN, you are in pretty good shape.

    Norm- Ferrari can supply a new set of three fobs with a new PIN as long as you have your original PIN. Talk to any dealer. Cost $550-850. You have to provide proof of ownership to your dealer. The set will arrive with your VIN, a new PIN and three matched fobs. The sets are available, you just have to talk to your dealer and know what you need. Most owners have no clue and confuse the crud out of what they want when they talk to the dealer.

    The same fobs were used all the way from the 5.2 355 through the 2005 Superamerica. Not rocket science.
