    I am searching for a seat potentiometer (spelling?) for my passenger seat. Ferrari informs me that they no longer sell this piece without selling the entire track assembly ($1200.00). In the interest of having cold drink money for August, I'm trying to find the part by itself, or a suitable substitute. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for any suggestions!

    If you can remove the potentiometer and take it to Radioshack, you can probably get one.

    Daniel @ Ricambi strikes again! Was wise enough to buy up several pots while they were still available alone, which saves a large amount of cash. Thanks also to JM3 for directing me to an incredibly informative thread on the problem. If I hadn't 5 thumbs on each hand and the need for the passenger seat to work this weekend I could have saved more by using this data.

    Glad you were able to solve your problem.


    Anyone know the cost diff. between the OEM from Raccambi and the Radio Shack solution?

    Based on the pricing that I know, approx $200.
