DBS Shift **** install on my DB9
Finally got my DBS **** from Astonmartinbits.com so spent a little time this afternoon doing the install and thought I would share some pictures.
Not a very difficult job but definitely want to take your time because would be very easy to scratch the leather or the surfaces of the interior pieces. Also discovered many screws that hold the ashtray and shiftboot retainer very loose or completely backed out! Luckily I was able to find all of them and reinstalled using a little loctite. I absolutely love the feel of the DBS shift ****..a really fun modification.
AND DONE..

Looks good. I went the other way, DBS **** to a wooden version of the Vantage ****. I like the shorter throw of the Vantage style.
FYI, looks to me like you were using a regular 'ol Phillips driver. If you (or anyone else working on his/her Aston) are messing around, use the proper Pozidriv screwdriver rather than a Phillips so that you don't mess up the head (especially if the screw is very tight).
A Phillips will work, but it is kind of a sloppy fit.
