    Hello F-Chat members,

    Does anyone know where I might be able to buy a set of the Testrossa front blinker turn lens screws?
    I need 4 and can't seem to find a place to buy the right ones. I purchased a set from euroautoricambi on ebay and they do not fit.

    Thank you for your help in advance!

    When I bought these about 6-7 years ago I just trimmed the length as I was able to get longer ones. What do you need exactly? Did you remove the Orange, Red and Clear screws? Did they all break? I have a few in the shop let me know what you need I might be able to help. Alternatively a quick ebay search shows they are available in longer lengths at a reasonable price, get the dremel out and your set.

    Hi jgmblair,

    Three of my four plastic amber screws have broken heads.

    I order these from ebay (link below) and the company said I could cut them to length as well. However, the Head Diameter is to large and does not fit into the slot/hole. The thread is slightly larger than the factory ones and does not easily screw into the plastic mounts. I may try to sand the head diameter down if i can't find a set that fits.

    https://www.ebay.com/itm/FERRARI-TESTAROSSA-FRONT-BLINKER-TURN-LENS-SCREW-SET-AMBER-MADE-IN-ITALY-x-4/233100202710?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2648

    Do you have any of the factory ones available?

    Thank You
    GTTT

    when you not will find in ebay you may try a local fiat dealer ( if those in the US still existing? up to 1987 they have because baught a lot of parts for 124 spider and sent to me to germany )
    they are available in amber, red and clear

    otherwise you may try to do 3-D print

    Sorry for not responding sooner but here are some pictures. Like Romano had mentioned, these were also used on Fiat cars. You can see the OEM screws fade and break, I bought 2 full sets for front and rear. They are NLA from Ferrari and used on the early cars, not sure when they changed but if you order using the part number in the catalogue you will receive the updated metal screw. Let me know what you find.

    I'm going to go with a 4.5 928 engine in the background.

    Good luck with the screws!

    Keen eye! Winter project with my 15 yr old son MY81 928.

    The engine is now brand new! Very good friend owns a machine shop and let me pester him for the past 6 weeks, we have done everything, just updating the front motor mounts then dropping it back in to hopefully fire up in the spring!
