    I'm looking to replace some of the tool bag retainer straps and believe the best way is to remove the tub. Anyone have instructions or details in doing so?

    Thanks in advance!

    If it's anything like the 458 it's simple, but somewhat tedious. Remove the wipers, and tub seal. Then remove all the plastic trim surrounding the tub by removing all the little hex bolts - over 20 of them IIRC... There are 4 or 6 bolts inside the tub, in the area under the straps, those would have to be removed. And there are additional 6 10mm bolts underneath that have to be removed as well from under the car. You can access them without raising the car. Then disconnect the trunk light and the emergency release latch, and you can lift it up and out. I have a couple of pictures of it out of the car in this thread: https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/intermittent-brake-failure-fixed.639751/

    The Normal Guy Supercar channel has a video that shows how to remove it. He's replacing the straps too

    Awesome. I saw that and it helped. All done! Crazy how hard it was just to change out those little straps. Thanks!
