Updated Aston Martin Sunvisors

Posted on November 15, 2022August 12, 2025 by Paul

Updated Aston Martin Sunvisors. The earlier DB9 and Vantages had a very basic sunvisor with a mirror that is not covered, I found this to be quite distracting (and unpleasant!) to be looking at myself in the mirror every time I had the (admittedly not overly useful) sun visors down. I decided to upgrade to…

Aston Martin DBS Inlet Manifold Upgrade

Posted on November 15, 2022August 12, 2025 by Paul

Aston Martin DBS Inlet Manifold Upgrade, the DBS manifolds have an enlarged plenum and improved flow characteristics perfect for a DB9 HP Upgrade, they produce more power at the top end but a little less low end torque. In my opinion they also look better than the stock DB9 manifolds. Removing the manifolds is not the…

Aston Martin Custom Glass Switches

Posted on June 14, 2022August 12, 2025 by Paul

Aston Martin Custom Glass Switches, These are now available to purchase When The Aston Martin DB9 was launched in 2004 it was met with almost universal acclaim, with only a few negative comments, one recurring comment was that the switchgear looked very cheap and nasty. In 2012 Aston Martin introduced “Glass switches”, these looked much…

Aston Martin DB9 Rear Window Control

Posted on June 12, 2022August 12, 2025 by Paul

Aston Martin DB9 Rear Window Control, on early DB9 Volantes (before MY2009) it was not possible to raise or lower the rear quarterlights independently of the roof, from 2009 onwards once the roof was lowered a flick of the roof switch would raise the rear quarterlights. The Volante looks better, more finished, with the rear…

Ambient Lighting

Posted on May 5, 2022January 5, 2023 by Paul

The interior of a DB9 is quite a dark place at night so I added some Ambient lighting, this was just a first attempt,lighting up the door handles and door pockets. More RGB lighting to come TBC Share this… Facebook Pinterest Email Twitter Whatsapp

DB9 Air Box Delete

Posted on April 28, 2022July 4, 2024 by Paul

DB9 Air Box Delete, The DB9 airbox is restrictive at high rpm and large throttle openings if the engine is modified at all (e.g. remap, removing secondary cats, etc.) and particularly if using the DBS inlet manifold which flows much better at high rpm, as the only inlet to the airbox is though the restrictive…

DB9 armrest upgrade

Posted on April 27, 2022March 18, 2023 by Paul

DB9 armrest upgrade. The early DB9s and Vantages had a very flat armrest with cupholders but no storage space, later cars had an much better armrest with storage inside and cupholders at the front, it looks much more in keeping with the rest of the car and is more practical. As well as storage it…

DBS Anti roll bar upgrade for DB9

Posted on April 25, 2022September 5, 2025 by Paul

DBS Anti roll bar upgrade for DB9. There was a variety of anti roll bars fitted to the DB9 and DBS as listed below. A good upgrade is to use DBS Anti roll bars for the DB9 which uses both DBS anti roll bars to upgrade the handling of the DB9. DB9 Coupe 2004-2012 The…
