       NOTES TO CONDENSED COMBINED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                                (unaudited)

                                April 2, 1994


NOTE A--BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed combined consolidated financial
statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form
10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include
all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating
results for the three and nine months ended April 2, 1994, should not be
considered indicative of the results that may be expected for the year
ended July 2, 1994.  The combined consolidated balance sheet at
July 3, 1993, has been taken from the audited financial statements and
condensed.  The accompanying condensed combined consolidated financial
statements and footnotes thereto should be read in conjunction with the
Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended July 3, 1993.

The Company's fiscal year is the 52 or 53 week period ending the Saturday
closest to June 30th.  Accordingly, each quarter will end on the Saturday
closest to quarter end.  Both the quarters ended April 2, 1994 and April 3,
1993 included 13 weeks.  The first nine months of 1994 included 39 weeks
compared to 40 weeks for the same period last year.

Item 2.
             DONNELLY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
             MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
          RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND FINANCIAL CONDITION
                       3RD QUARTER REPORT 
       FOR THE THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED APRIL 2, 1994  
               

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company's net sales and net income are subject to significant quarterly
fluctuations attributable primarily to production schedules of the
Company's major automotive customers.  These same factors cause quarterly
results to fluctuate from year to year, as well as from quarter to quarter. 
                            
Consolidated net sales in the third quarter of 1994 were $90,897,000, an
increase of 14% over the third quarter of 1993.  During this period, North
American (N.A.) automotive production increased 8%.  New complete exterior
mirror business for Ford began in the third quarter, more than offsetting
the negative sales impact caused by the European recession.  Sales
increases in Interior Systems, Appliance Products and Information Products
also helped the Company's sales increase to outpace N.A. automotive
production.

Consolidated net sales for the first nine months of 1994 were $239,222,000,
an increase of 10% over the same period last year.  N.A. automotive
production increased 8% in the same period.     

Gross profit margin for the third quarter of 1994 was 21.8% compared to
22.6% in the third quarter of 1993.  The decrease resulted from: the
European recession's impact on the Company's Irish subsidiary; start-up
costs associated with new complete exterior mirror production including a
second shift painting operation; and business units undergoing significant
transitions.  Margins will continue to be negatively impacted over the next
12-15 months as many business units prepare for new business or complete a
transition process.  Gross profit for the first nine months of 1994 was
21.2% compared to 22.4% last year.

Selling, administrative and general expenses of $9,745,000 or 10.7% of
sales in the third quarter decreased from $9,844,000 or 12.4% in the same
period last year.  Selling, administrative and general expenses increased
by $638,000 for the first nine months of 1994 to 11.6%, compared to 12.4%
for the same period last year.  Patent litigation costs in both the three
and nine month periods are significantly lower than last year.

Research and development expenses for the third quarter and first nine
months of 1994 were 6.2% and 6.4% of sales, respectively.  Expenses in both
periods were nearly a full percentage point higher than last year.  These
increases are primarily the result of significant development costs being
incurred to support new business for Ford and Mazda complete exterior
mirror systems in model years 1995 and beyond, along with the new Chrysler
minivan modular window business slated for start-up in late 1995.

Interest expense increased $205,000 in the third quarter and $141,000 in
the first nine months of 1994.  Lower interest rates continued to help
offset the higher borrowing levels caused by increased capital spending.  

Royalty income in the third quarter and first nine months of 1994 were
$375,000 and $1,045,000 respectively, virtually flat with the same periods
last year.

The Company had net income of $2,679,000 in the third quarter, compared to  
$2,631,000 in the same period last year.  Higher sales resulting from the
increased N.A. automotive production and new complete exterior mirror
business, along with lower selling, general and administration expenses as
a percent-of-sales allowed the Company's earnings to remain flat with the
same period last year.  This performance occurred despite: 1) a deep and
prolonged recession in Europe which negatively impacted Donnelly's Irish
subsidiary; 2) increased research and development expenditures to support
new complete exterior mirror and modular window programs 3) increased
competition and a downturn in the demand for coated glass used in liquid
crystal displays negatively affecting Donnelly Applied Films performance
and 4) postretirement health care cost of $344,000.  The Company had
earnings in the first nine months of 1994 of $4,226,000 compared to
$6,266,000 in the same period last year.      

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's current ratio was 1.9 at April 2, 1994 and 2.0 at July 3,
1993.  Working capital increased $4,021,000 to $37,853,000 to support the
higher sales level.  Capital expenditures were $21,594,000 in the first
nine months of 1994, in support of facility expansions for modular windows,
and exterior and interior mirrors.  Capital spending is projected to
continue at a high level through the remainder of 1994 and throughout 1995
to support construction of new modular window and complete exterior mirror
equipment and facilities, redesign of existing manufacturing areas, and
construction of new facilities to consolidate operations and replace older
facilities.  The increased spending will be financed primarily through the
Company's $55 million revolving credit agreement, which had borrowings of   
$13,300,000 against it as of April 2, 1994.  The Company also expects to
issue an additional $15,000,000 private placement note with an insurance
company by the end of the 1994 calendar year.

Item 1.  Legal Proceedings

Certain electrochromic mirror technology of the Company is the subject of
patent litigation between the Company and Gentex Corporation ("Gentex"). 
Following the settlement in May 1993, of two lawsuits previously filed by
Gentex, Gentex filed another lawsuit against the Company on June 7, 1993. 
In this suit, Gentex alleged that the Company's solid polymer film
electrochromic mirror infringed one of the Gentex patents involved in the
prior litigation and that the Company has violated the injunction entered
by the court in the previous litigation.  Gentex sought unspecified damages
and an injunction against further alleged infringement by the Company.  On
March 21, 1994, the Company's motion for summary judgement of non-
infringement was granted and the lawsuit was dismissed.  Gentex has filed
an appeal of this ruling, and no decision is expected on this until 1995.

The Company's lawsuit against Gentex, filed on July 8, 1993, remains
outstanding.  In this suit, the Company has alleged that Gentex's lighted
electrochromic mirror infringes three of the Company's patents and that all
of Gentex's electrochromic mirrors infringe a fourth patent owned by the
Company.  The Company is seeking unspecified damages and an injunction
against further infringement by Gentex.  Pretrial discovery is being
conducted in this action, and a trial has been scheduled to begin in
October 1995.

     a.   Exhibits - none
     b.   The Company did not file any reports on Form 8-K during the three
