    I'd like to get the mating connectors for the fans for a 550. How to get these other than from a dismantled 550?

    Post up a picture or maybe ask in the 550 section. Connectors are not rocket science as they would have us believe! There are markings on them somewhere of who made them, probably very small though.

    Jim, the 550's fans are made by SPAL and are identical to SPAL model 30102113, which uses a Metripack 280 series 2 pole connector.

    SPAL also give AMP 180908 as the connector number for the fan side.

    My experience is that for more recent car's, e.g., the 550, Ferrari sources many, if not all, of the connectors from TE Connectivity. Formerly Tyco Electronics. Tyco acquired various other companies over the years including AMP. I believe it is highly likely the connector that you seek is something you can find in the TE Connectivity catalog
