FF Side View Mirror Switch

Hmm, that doesn't look very robust.

Is the broken part only limited to the knob? I wonder if you can buy only the knob, rather than the entire assembly.

 

Enzo Ferrari “I build engine’s “, it’s a never ending story, mine is 2015 always garaged and already
I have sticky issues.

 

This is so true

Is the $200 replacement part for the entire unit, or just the knob?

Like they said, frustration like this is part of the "charms" of Ferrari ownership.

 

I prefere them to Ricambi, really on the ball good prices.
D.

 

Yes..

 

Looks to be the same knob used on a 2007 Maserati QP. Look up that part number and google it. I purchased it new for about $50 to replace a broken $800 assembly for my Ferrari 612.

 

I'll be interested in knowing if the identical part is priced differently based on the brand.

 

Those mirror controls can be very similar with some differences. Yes, the same parts are used across various models but some are have subtle differences such as the knob.

 

It's not worth much but I will buy the broken unit if you wish to sell. We could use it to reverse engineer the parts as we begin the reproduce common failing components.

 

I have an FF and a Thesis and the knobs are the same. Hard to imagine that you need more than just the knob.

 

In his photo - it's the stem that's broken. Replacing the knob is not going to help.

 

Mmm, I think I need glasses. OK, so what I see on the first pic are the remains of the stem, right?! Can't it be glued then? I guess that if you toggle the remains the mirrors still can be adjusted, not? Then it is worth a try.

 

That stem is a very brittle piece. We are 3D modeling one from a different car now so we can reproduce them as they break often. It may be possible to glue it but not sure it would hold up.

 

Then I still wonder if the unit of a Thesis would fit. Ask the dealer to keep the broken unit and post a picture, if you have any inspiration left after paying the bill....

 

Reviving this thread because I have the same issue with the snapped mirror switch in my FF. Has anyone created a stronger replacement or have a recommended fix?
