On March 30, 2010, Dorman Products, Inc.

Riley to fill the new board seat effective immediately.  Mr. Riley has been appointed to a term expiring at the Company’s 2010 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and will be eligible for re-election by the Company’s shareholders at that time.  Mr. Riley will serve on the Board’s Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee.  A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.

Mr. Riley serves as Executive Chairman of LoJack Corp where he previously served as the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer from November 2006 until December 2008 and as its President and Chief Operating Officer from February 2005 until November 2006.

He also serves as a member of the Board of Directors of VistaPrint USA Incorporated, a publicly held printing and graphic arts business, and Micro-Coax, Inc., a privately held manufacturer of microwave and cable products.

The Board has determined that Mr. Riley is an “independent director” under the rules of the NASDAQ Stock Market.  As compensation for his Board service, Mr. Riley will receive an annual retainer of $37,500 plus $1,500 for each Board of Directors meeting attended and $1,000 for each Committee meeting attended.

Mr. Riley has no arrangement or understanding with any persons pursuant to which he was appointed to serve as a director, except as described herein.  Mr. Riley does not have any family relationship with any officer or director of the Company.  Further, Mr. Riley has not been involved in any related transactions or relationships with the Company as defined in Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
