Glass Buttons, Door Caps, and The Dension Gateway 500
Here are some photos of the upgrades I did on my DB9 while it sat in my garage over the winter. I fitted the P R N D Glass buttons, Piano Black Door Capps, and The Dension 500 with an aux-in port. Sorry for the poor photos had to take them at night. Let me know what you guys thinks thanks

I really like the piano black door accents, but it doesn't look like they make them for the Vantage

How are you liking the Dension 500?

Those glass buttons look very nice. Do you have any pics showing the backlighting at night?

Do you know if those glass buttons will work on a 2005 DB9? The Aston store says 2006 and up.

Are the standard buttons on my new Vantage plastic?
How difficult is it to replace them?
