I do the same, I keep it open all the time after hearing too many of these stories.
Has anybody had any luck sourcing this annoying "dumper" part (261198)? My radio cover won't close, Ferrari can't find the part, and I haven't been able to track it down aftermarket.
Ryan, I was able to find a source for this part about 7 months ago from Maranello parts in the UK: https://www.ferrariparts.co.uk/ It may not show on their website, but I got a lead by emailing them. They claimed it was OEM, but it wasn't cheap...like ~$200 with shipping from England.
