UP until my recent 2011 Vantage I had the aluminum finish seat switch covers on all of them starting with a 2007 I bought new through my 2017 V12S. I was surprised they became so rare and sold out when I got the 2011 last year. They look so much better than plastic as they are quite exposed and not hidden under the seat. Aston should have made the covers standard. Glad I found the way to get some!

I have a set of those sitting in my desk. I put the driver side on and decided they looked too big, and just made the switches stand out more. I tried to find out if we could use the switches from the Rapide but no go.

Well... Amazon just informed me that they refunded my money for the seat switch covers that are now 'out of stock'... so now hunting.

Well, DHgate.com sent the switch covers to LaJolla California at some address, not my Minnesota address! So now I sent a dispute to see what happens!

DHgate who I ordered the switch covers investigated and said the company was fraudulent and no covers actually existed - they apologized and are refunding the money. Search continues!

Are these the ones that work? They look correct...

I'm wondering too. Their general shape looks correct, although the larger ones have indents on the sides, I don't see indents in the other ones posted in this thread. Perhaps they'd still fit?

Ps, I think I see the same ones on US eBay:

The ones I have were for a land rover... however many parts also came from mid 2000 volvos... they look similar. Buy them and let everyone know because the land rover ones have become scarce

So did I actually, I guess we'll just get a very very solid assessment across the 3 of us. Mine arrive Friday Jan 5 2024. My model's the one in my signature below, if it makes a difference.
