                             FIAT SEATING BUSINESS

               NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)


1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

   On December 15, 1994, Lear Seating Corporation purchased from Gilardini      
   S.p.A., an Italian Corporation, all of the outstanding common stock of Sepi
   Poland S.p. Z o.o. and a 35% interest in a Turkish joint venture
   (collectively, the "Fiat Seat Business," or "the Companies"). In connection
   with this transaction, Lear Seating Corporation and Fiat (S.p.A. ("Fiat")
   entered into a long-term supply agreement for certain products produced by
   the FSB.

   The FSB is engaged in the design and manufacture of automotive seating, with 
   its principal customers being Fiat and its affiliates.  Prior to the FSB
   being acquired by Lear Seating Corporation, the FSB received certain
   administrative and treasury management services from Gilardini S.p.A. and
   from other Fiat group finance companies.

   These combined financial statements include the results of operating 
   activities, transactions and assets and liabilities associated with the
   business of FSB in Italy and Poland.  They also include Sepi S.p.A's 49%
   interest in Industrias Cousin Freres S.L., a Spanish company also operating
   in the Seat business, which is accounted for under the equity method of
   accounting.

   The combined financial statements have been prepared in conformity with      
   accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and reflect
   certain adjustments and reclassifications to the financial statements
   prepared by the Companies for legal and tax purposes in their respective
   countries. The Companies' fiscal year end is December 31.

   The combined financial statements of FSB for 1994 have been prepared without
   audit pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
   Commission.  Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included
   in   financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
   accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules
   and regulations.  Management believes that the disclosures are adequate to
   make the information presented not misleading when read in conjunction with
   the financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Combined
   Financial Statements as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on
   Form 8-K, dated December 15, 1994, for the Acquisition of the Fiat Seat
   Business.

   The financial information presented reflects all adjustments (consisting
   only of normal recurring adjustments) which are, in the opinion of
   management,  necessary for a fair statement of the results of operations and
   financial position for the interim periods presented.  These results are not
   necessarily indicative of a full year's results of operations.
