Pick up new 2009 4.7 V8V tomorrow!
Discussion
3 buttons under the rear view mirror. Very easy to set up.
We have electric gates and manual garage doors and they work fine with the gates.
Waiting for it to dry out before putting it in the garage. It’ll have to stay dirty until after the service in November and then I’ll put it away for the winter, all snug in it’s Aston Martin Vantage fitted car cover

Nice, congrats!
If not used, the garage opener can be repurposed to control the exhaust valves with the CC Charger kit, could be interesting. I don't know the exact procedure as I don't have the opener on my N420 hence I use the CC Charger remote, but I am sure someone will fill in.

Genius ! There’s three buttons, so one can do the gates, the other two to do the CC exhaust.If not used, the garage opener can be repurposed to control the exhaust valves with the CC Charger kit, could be interesting.

Syncing is very easy, manual explains a bit better than I can.
Will have a chat with Clive and see what he thinks.
Cheers

Yes, when I had the CC switch I programmed the mirror to operate it, can't remember the process but if I did it, it must have been relatively straight forward!!Mr.Tremlini said:
Bamford Rose three way switch now. Was a pretty expensive switch, but came with free manifolds and high flow cats!
Make sense!

Clive has confirmed that the CC Charger system works perfectly with the garage door opener under the rear view mirror.
As there are 3 buttons you can have one for the gates/garage door and use the other 2 for the CC Charger.
Happy days
Nice, it's gonna be very Bond-like pushing a button on the mirror and opening those valves.As there are 3 buttons you can have one for the gates/garage door and use the other 2 for the CC Charger.
Happy days

Nearly 2 weeks in and so far I have been mostly doing the following...
1.) Nearside mirror removed and away for dipping and powder coating
2.) H&R 23mm rear spacers fitted
3.) Pollen filters replaced
4.) Air filters replaced
5.) Remote exhaust functionality programmed into rear view mirror buttons
It goes in for a service at AML Macclesfield next week and after that it’s thermostat replacement and a wash/wax before putting away until after Christmas.
Still can’t believe how good it looks every time I go into the garage...

Clean bill of health from AML Macclesfield - aside from new discs all round. Sourced some Brembos at a decent price so all good.
Last job before winter is to get the driver's door mirror arm exactly the same colour as the nearside, which I've just had fully refurbed and powder coated. Trouble is, the driver's side was replaced under warranty, shortly before I got the car and is in a slightly different shade of black/grey. It seems a shame to strip a perfect arm and therefore I've acquired a couple of spare arms which needed refurbing and will get the drivers side done.
That leaves me with a spare nearside which needs a refurb, a virtually perfect offside in original AM finish, two motors - 1 for each side and a pair of carbon door caps, which are not bad, but not perfect...
What to do with them... ?!
