Awesome Aston Glass Buttons V8 Vantage

[Andydee]

About four years ago I was following a forum that discussed glass buttons for the Aston Martin, these were to replace the much dated rubber ones that did the car no justice. Many of us with anything prior to the 2009 didn’t really have a choice. Aston didn’t make them for models prior to the 2009 (if I’m not mistaken)... sure you could pick up about 3 of the glass buttons (DB9 if I recall correctly) that would work, parking light, traction control and fog light, but what about the other 6+. It took me a couple of years working with a known company to get them, but they do look amazing. I had some fun with the front heated windscreen, rear heated windscreen and passenger airbag.. but I’m sure you figured which is which smile

These look amazing - nice work. Will you be producing more of these or are they a 'one off'?

[Ex Boy Racer]

Maybe ‘radar’ for the parking sensor button would be better than the P symbol??!!

[Andydee]

Radar... that would have been a good idea.👍🏻

Sheild?

Any chance we can order them?

I spotted that too!!

Hopefully any mass production versions will be spell checked!!

Great catch on the ‘sheild’ . I just checked my order and I had it correct... writing to the manufacturer today. Thank you... fresh eyes and all that.

Brilliant, I'd love a set for a 2011 model

[dimots]

Phew

They look great!

Got a close up or two... the photos don’t do it justice.

Do you think the manufacturer could also make a replacement cap for the gear gate map on the top of the gearstick? It has always looked cheap to me. I’d love to see some alternative designs and materials.

I’ve also always wanted to somehow mount my fuse 22 button under a pop up top to the gear stick with a big red button.

The Eject Button houses my fuse 22 switcher and now is my on/off button It use to be the passenger airbag light, which I chose not to need. The DB10 is the ideal... just cannot get them. I’ll look and see if I can get one made though.

Extremely juvenile but I’d love one.

[TR-Spider]

A few years ago I experimented with making the display illuminated but couldn't get the light-spread right so gave up. No doubt it would be possible with the correct piece of diffusing plastic.

Do you have a 007 plate as well?

[a98pmalcolm]

Would you make these for members?

Always liked the look of glass buttons.. But I would want just the normal symbols including the heated wind screen
