True true - Our 78 308 GTS had wobbly head lamps when up - jittered all over the place. The fix is to replace the white nylon bushings - either 4 or 8. Anyway - about 50¢ each - at the dealer!!. Of course a key ring is $40 bucks - but whatever. heh heh

Check Ferrari's pricing. Sometimes, but definitely not always, the price
they charge for some hardware items is disturbingly cheap.

Have you thought of using your local yellow pages? Shipping costs these days kills a lot of "deals" especially heavy ones like a box of metal. I was surprised I was able to find a wholesaler just a few miles from my house that was willing to deal with me on single item purchases to bulk. They even looked up what I needed with me bringing in a broken original in which I had no idea of size and grade. Local shops and manufacturers have to get stuff too. I was lucky mine was a referral of a local machine shop but when I needed to call them one time, they were listed in the good old fashion phone book. Maybe a google search with your location might generate a local source. Also, you can probably custom order what you need and not get unnecessary hardware like in those boxed sets.

Good luck.
