Diamond Triumph Auto Glass Announces Kick-Off Of New Website and Internet Initiatives

    KINGSTON, Pa., Dec. 4 Diamond Triumph Auto Glass, Inc.
announces the launch today of its next generation website,
http://www.diamondtriumph.com.  Using the latest Internet design tools, this new site
was developed to satisfy the needs of the consumers and the insurance and
commercial fleet industries.  The website serves as a foundation for the
Company's significant upcoming e-business initiatives, which will include web
assignments, web claim reporting and ultimately, complete electronic claims
management.
    When you visit the new site, you can schedule auto glass service or
request a price quote online.  You can also learn more about extensive
services of Diamond Triumph, verify installation locations and review recent
news releases.  The site is a result of the combined efforts of the Company's
seasoned marketing team and Design Insites, Inc., of northern California, its
exclusive business to business partner.
    "With the new site, we're poised to take advantage of the convenience,
cost-effectiveness and enhanced service aspects of the e-commerce world.
Partnering with an experienced e-business company, such as Design Insites,
allowed us to quickly provide our customers with an array of Internet-ready
products and services," commented Peter Richter, Diamond Triumph's vice
president of financial operations and business development.
    "The recent major release of Diamond Triumph's corporate website
exemplifies their commitment to a broad-based e-commerce initiative," added
Richard Barr, chief executive officer for Design Insites, Inc.  "We have
assisted more than 100 companies with similar initiatives, however, none
displayed the enthusiasm and readiness to architect a complete, multi-
dimensional e-commerce platform as Diamond Triumph."
