I think those look too large and look like an afterthought.
I have carbon paddle shifters on my V12VSR, they are the original ones specced from new.
They might still be available from your dealer or Astonmartinbits.
They are larger than the standard aluminium and leather ones but not like overly large. Perfect but pricey.

$900 yikes I got some for my McLaren from states and thought $230 shipped to door was a bit steep. (those do look rather too large to me).

Try this one - says it fits a DBS and its brand new and OEM AM part, not some cheapo aftermarket thing and more or less the same price anyway!

They look a bit smaller than the ones fitted to the V12VS, link describes paddle shifters for a Vanquish Zagato, maybe they’re different than the ones fitted to the V12VS which look larger (picture below)?

I just want to point out that the paddles in the DB9 and the Vantage are not compatible. I think the software is different because the DB9/DBS/Rapide have autoboxes unlike the SportShift in the Vantage

I know I tried that
