FERRARI 456 WINDOW MECHANISM REPLACMENT - Ferrari Life

HISTORY:
Reasons for replacing such a mechanism are numerous but the more compelling reasons are:
a. The Pantograph, to be shown, separates. There is a fix for just that part where another member
basically used three/four sheet metal screws to keep the part together. [Search criteria is for
that fix: “456 Window : Repair etc.”, user starting thread: “Granucci”]
b. You either do not want to trust or repair the pantograph or other mechanisms and want to
totally replace with a newer part.
TOOLS:
‐ 10 mm wrench
‐ 7 mm socket with screwdriver like ability.
‐ Various HEX wrenches. It is highly recommended that you obtain the ‘ball’ end type.
‐ Phillips screwdriver
‐ One prying tool: Flat head screwdriver, but a small knifelike item is best to prevent scratching. I
used a SWISS pocket screwdriver [see below].
‐ Camera: Very handy to remember how things were situated for re‐assembly.
‐ OPTIONAL:
o Magnetic holding trays. I used two, one for the exterior items and one for interior parts
o Clip/tape: VERY handy to keep parts away and in the order taken off but still on. You’ll
see below.
o Gloves [nitrate etc.] I choose to just use goop‐off afterwards on cleaning my hands of
the white grease.
o BLUE‐TAPE. Like used in painting to cover leather from your invariable greasy hands.
o Small Rust‐blaster product.
o White Grease
