COLMAR, PA--(Marketwire - December 10, 2008) - Dorman Products (NASDAQ: DORM) today announced the launch of their new Virtual Tradeshow on the heels of the 2008 AAPEX (Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo) Show. This Interactive Tradeshow Experience allows Dorman to deliver its AAPEX booth straight to visitors' computers via an easy-to-use, web-based tool.

The environment creates a virtual experience second only to actually walking through the Dorman booth at AAPEX.

The new Virtual Tradeshow provides wide-ranging product coverage and is accessible 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Gerard Yanuzzi, Director of Marketing, said, "Dorman is known for its industry firsts, and we continue with that tradition by launching what we believe to be the industry's first virtual tradeshow. Our AAPEX tradeshow booth is a highlight for the thousands that attend the show each year. We know that due to recent economic conditions, many of our valued customers were unable to attend the event this year. So, we are bringing our AAPEX booth to them -- with access available around the clock."
