                           AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS

                                       OF

                             VIASYSTEMS GROUP, INC.

                             A Delaware Corporation

                                    PREAMBLE

      These bylaws of Viasystems Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Corporation"), have been amended and restated as of January 31, 2003. These
bylaws are subject to, and governed by, the General Corporation Law of the State
of Delaware (the "Delaware General Corporation Law") and the Corporation's
certificate of incorporation. In the event of a direct conflict between the
provisions of these bylaws and the mandatory provisions of the Delaware General
Corporation Law or the provisions of the certificate of incorporation of the
Corporation, such provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law or the
certificate of incorporation of the Corporation, as the case may be, will be
controlling.

                                   ARTICLE I
                                    OFFICES

      1.1 Registered Office and Agent. The registered office and registered
agent of the Corporation shall be as designated from time to time by the
appropriate filing by the Corporation in the office of the Secretary of State of
the State of Delaware.

      1.2 Other Offices. The Corporation may also have offices at such other
places, both within and without the State of Delaware, as the board of directors
may from time to time determine or as the business of the Corporation may
require.

                                   ARTICLE II
                            MEETINGS OF STOCKHOLDERS

      2.1 Annual Meeting. An annual meeting of stockholders of the Corporation
shall be held each calendar year on such date and at such time as shall be
designated from time to time by the board of directors and stated in the notice
of the meeting or in a duly executed waiver of notice of such meeting. At such
meeting, the stockholders shall elect directors and transact such other business
as may properly be brought before the meeting.

      2.2 Special Meeting. A special meeting of the stockholders may be called
by the board of directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by three of the
members of the board of directors, by the Chairman of the Board, by the
President or by any holder or holders of at least 25% of the outstanding shares
of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at such meeting. A special
meeting shall be held on such date and at such time as shall be designated by
the person(s) calling the meeting and stated in the notice of the meeting or in
a duly executed waiver of notice of such meeting. Only such business shall be
transacted at a special meeting as may be stated or indicated in the notice of
such meeting or in a duly executed waiver of notice of such meeting.



      2.3 Place of Meetings. An annual meeting of stockholders may be held at
any place within or without the State of Delaware designated by the board of
directors. A special meeting of stockholders may be held at any place within or
without the State of Delaware designated in the notice of the meeting or a duly
executed waiver of notice of such meeting. Meetings of stockholders shall be
held at the principal office of the Corporation unless another place is
designated for meetings in the manner provided herein.

      2.4 Notice. Written or printed notice stating the place, day, and time of
each meeting of the stockholders and, in case of a special meeting, the purpose
or purposes for which the meeting is called shall be delivered not less than ten
nor more than 60 days before the date of the meeting, either personally or by
mail, by or at the direction of the President, the Secretary, or the officer or
person(s) calling the meeting, to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at
such meeting. If such notice is to be sent by mail, it shall be directed to such
stockholder at his address as it appears on the records of the Corporation,
unless he shall have filed with the Secretary of the Corporation a written
request that notices to him be mailed to some other address, in which case it
shall be directed to him at such other address. Notice of any meeting of
stockholders shall not be required to be given to any stockholder who shall
attend such meeting in person or by proxy and shall not, at the beginning of
such meeting, object to the transaction of any business because the meeting is
not lawfully called or convened, or who shall, either before or after the
meeting, submit a signed waiver of notice, in person or by proxy.

      2.5 Voting List. At least ten days before each meeting of stockholders,
the Secretary or other officer of the Corporation who has charge of the
Corporation's stock ledger, either directly or through another officer appointed
by him or through a transfer agent appointed by the board of directors, shall
prepare a complete list of stockholders entitled to vote thereat, arranged in
alphabetical order and showing the address of each stockholder and number of
shares registered in the name of each stockholder. For a period of ten days
prior to such meeting, such list shall be (a) made available on a reasonably
accessible electronic network, access to which shall be specified in the notice
of meeting or a duly executed waiver of notice of such meeting or (b) kept on
file at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held, which place
shall be specified in the notice of meeting or a duly executed waiver of notice
of such meeting or, if not so specified, at the principal place of business of
the Corporation and shall be open to examination by any stockholder during
ordinary business hours. Such list shall be produced at such meeting and kept at
the meeting at all times during such meeting and may be inspected by any
stockholder who is present.

      2.6 Quorum. The holders of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled
to vote on a matter, present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at
any meeting of stockholders, except as otherwise provided by law, the
certificate of incorporation of the Corporation, or these bylaws. If a quorum
shall not be present, in person or by proxy, at any meeting of stockholders, the
stockholders entitled to vote thereat who are present, in person or by proxy,
or, if no stockholder entitled to vote is present, any officer of the
Corporation may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than
announcement at the meeting (unless the board of directors, after such
adjournment, fixes a new record date for the adjourned meeting), until a quorum
shall be present, in person or by proxy. At any adjourned meeting at which a
quorum shall be present, in person or by proxy, any business may be transacted
which may have been transacted at the original meeting had a quorum been
present; provided that, if the adjournment is

                                       2


for more than 30 days or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for
the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each
stockholder of record entitled to vote at the adjourned meeting.

      2.7 Required Vote; Withdrawal of Quorum. When a quorum is present at any
meeting, the vote of the holders of at least a majority (or in the case of the
election of directors, a plurality) of the outstanding shares entitled to vote
who are present, in person or by proxy, shall decide any question brought before
such meeting, unless the question is one on which, by express provision of
statute, the certificate of incorporation of the Corporation, or these bylaws, a
different vote is required, in which case such express provision shall govern
and control the decision of such question. The stockholders present at a duly
constituted meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment,
notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a
quorum.

      2.8 Method of Voting; Proxies. Except as otherwise provided in the
certificate of incorporation of the Corporation (including in any certificate of
designation) or by law, each outstanding share, regardless of class, shall be
entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of
stockholders. Elections of directors need not be by written ballot. At any
meeting of stockholders, every stockholder having the right to vote may vote
either in person or by a proxy executed in writing by the stockholder or by his
duly authorized attorney-in-fact. Each such proxy shall be filed with the
Secretary of the Corporation before or at the time of the meeting. No proxy
shall be valid after three years from the date of its execution, unless
otherwise provided in the proxy. If no date is stated in a proxy, such proxy
shall be presumed to have been executed on the date of the meeting at which it
is to be voted. Each proxy shall be revocable unless expressly provided therein
to be irrevocable and coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an
irrevocable power or unless otherwise made irrevocable by law.

      2.9 Record Date. (a) For the purpose of determining stockholders entitled
to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders, or any adjournment
thereof, or entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or
allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any
change, conversion, or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful
action, the board of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall
not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted
by the board of directors, for any such determination of stockholders, such date
in any case to be not more than 60 days and not less than ten days prior to such
meeting nor more than 60 days prior to any other action. If no record date is
fixed:

            (i)   The record date for determining stockholders entitled to
notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of
business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given or, if
notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on
which the meeting is held.

            (ii)  The record date for determining stockholders for any other
purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the board of
directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.

                                       3


            (iii) A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice
of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the
meeting; provided, however, that the board of directors may fix a new record
date for the adjourned meeting.

            (b)   In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders
entitled to consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting, the board
of directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date
upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of
directors, and which date shall not be more than ten days after the date upon
which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the board of
directors. If no record date has been fixed by the board of directors, the
record date for determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action
in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the board of directors is
required by law or these bylaws, shall be the first date on which a signed
written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is
delivered to the Corporation by delivery to its registered office in the State
of Delaware, its principal place of business, or an officer or agent of the
Corporation having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of
stockholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Corporation's registered office
in the State of Delaware, principal place of business, or such officer or agent
shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested.
If no record date has been fixed by the board of directors and prior action by
the board of directors is required by law or these bylaws, the record date for
determining stockholders entitled to consent to corporate action in writing
without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the day on which the
board of directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

      2.10 Conduct of Meeting. The Chairman of the Board, if such office has
been filled, or, if not or if the Chairman of the Board is absent or otherwise
unable to act, such other person designated by the board of directors shall
preside at all meetings of stockholders. The Secretary shall keep the records of
each meeting of stockholders. In the absence or inability to act of any such
officer, such officer's duties shall be performed by the officer given the
authority to act for such absent or non-acting officer under these bylaws or by
some person appointed by the meeting.

                                   ARTICLE III
                                    DIRECTORS

      3.1 Management. The business and property of the Corporation shall be
managed by the board of directors. Subject to the restrictions imposed by law,
the certificate of incorporation of the Corporation, or these bylaws, the board
of directors may exercise all the powers of the Corporation.

      3.2 Number; Qualification; Election; Term. Except as otherwise set forth
in the certificate of incorporation of the Corporation, the number of directors
constituting the entire board of directors shall be fixed from time to time
exclusively by resolution adopted by the board of directors and shall consist of
no less than one member. Except as otherwise required by law, the certificate of
incorporation of the Corporation, or these bylaws, the directors shall be
elected at an annual meeting of stockholders at which a quorum is present.
Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in
person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the election of
directors. Each director so chosen shall hold office until his successor is

                                       4


elected and qualified or, if earlier, until his death, resignation, or removal
from office. None of the directors need be a stockholder of the Corporation or a
resident of Delaware. Each director must have attained the age of majority.

      3.3 Change in Number. No decrease in the number of directors constituting
the entire board of directors shall have the effect of shortening the term of
any incumbent director.

      3.4 Removal. Except as otherwise provided in the certificate of
incorporation of the Corporation or these bylaws, at any meeting of stockholders
called expressly for that purpose, any director or the entire board of directors
may be removed with or without cause by a vote of the holders of a majority of
the shares then entitled to vote on the election of directors.

      3.5 Vacancies. Newly created directorships resulting from any increase in
the authorized number of directors and any vacancies occurring in the board of
directors caused by death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal
from office of any directors or otherwise, may be filled by the vote of a
majority of the directors then in office, though less than a quorum, or by the
sole remaining director, or a successor or successors may be chosen at a special
meeting of the stockholders called for that purpose, and each successor director
so chosen shall hold office until successor shall be elected and qualified or,
if earlier, until his death, resignation, or removal from office.

      3.6 Meetings of Directors. The directors may hold their meetings and may
have an office and keep the books of the Corporation, except as otherwise
provided by statute, in such place or places within or without the State of
Delaware as the board of directors may from time to time determine or as shall
be specified in the notice of such meeting or duly executed waiver of notice of
such meeting.

      3.7 First Meeting. Each newly elected board of directors may hold its
first meeting for the purpose of organization and the transaction of business,
if a quorum is present, immediately after and at the same place as the annual
meeting of stockholders, and no notice of such meeting shall be necessary.

      3.8 Regular Meetings. Regular meetings of the board of directors shall be
held at such times and places as shall be designated from time to time by
resolution of the board of directors. Notice of such regular meetings shall not
be required.

      3.9 Special Meetings. Special meetings of the board of directors shall be
held whenever called by the Chairman of the Board, the President, or any
director.

      3.10 Notice. The Secretary shall give notice of each special meeting to
each director at least 24 hours before the meeting. Notice of any such meeting
need not be given to any director who shall, either before or after the meeting,
submit a signed waiver of notice or who shall attend such meeting without
protesting, prior to or at its commencement, the lack of notice to him. Neither
the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special
meeting of the board of directors need be specified in the notice or waiver of
notice of such meeting.

      3.11 Quorum; Majority Vote. At all meetings of the board of directors, a
majority of the directors fixed in the manner provided in these bylaws shall
constitute a quorum for the

                                       5


transaction of business. If at any meeting of the board of directors there be
less than a quorum present, a majority of those present or any director solely
present may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice. Unless
the act of a greater number is required by law, the certificate of incorporation
of the Corporation, or these bylaws, the act of a majority of the directors
present at a meeting at which a quorum is in attendance shall be the act of the
board of directors.

      3.12 Procedure. At meetings of the board of directors, business shall be
transacted in such order as from time to time the board of directors may
determine. The Chairman of the Board, if such office has been filled, or, if not
or if the Chairman of the Board is absent or otherwise unable to act, such other
person designated by the board of directors shall preside at all meetings of the
board of directors. In the absence or inability to act of either such officer, a
chairman shall be chosen by the board of directors from among the directors
present. The Secretary of the Corporation shall act as the secretary of each
meeting of the board of directors unless the board of directors appoints another
person to act as secretary of the meeting. The board of directors shall keep
regular minutes of its proceedings which shall be placed in the minute book of
the Corporation.

      3.13 Compensation. The board of directors shall have the authority to fix
the compensation, including fees and reimbursement of expenses, paid to
directors for attendance at regular or special meetings of the board of
directors or any committee thereof; provided, that nothing contained herein
shall be construed to preclude any director from serving the Corporation in any
other capacity or receiving compensation therefor.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                                   COMMITTEES

member or as a director, or (iii) his removal as a committee member or as a
director.

committee. If no alternate committee

                                       6


members have been so appointed to a committee or each such alternate committee
member is absent or disqualified, the member or members of such committee
present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not he or
they constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the board of
directors to act at the meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified
member.

      4.6 Regular Meetings. Regular meetings of any committee may be held
without notice at such time and place as may be designated from time to time by

specified in the notice or waiver of notice of any special meeting.

      4.8 Quorum; Majority Vote. At meetings of any committee, a majority of the
number of members designated by the board of directors shall constitute a quorum
for the transaction of business. If a quorum is not present at a meeting of any
committee, a majority of the members present may adjourn the meeting from time
to time, without notice other than an announcement at the meeting, until a

                                   ARTICLE V
                                     NOTICE

      5.1 Method. Whenever by statute, the certificate of incorporation of the
Corporation, or these bylaws, notice is required to be given to any committee
member, director, or stockholder and no provision is made as to how such notice
shall be given, personal notice shall not be required and any such notice may be
given (a) in writing, by mail, postage prepaid, addressed to such committee
member, director, or stockholder at his address as it appears on the books or
(in the case of a stockholder) the stock transfer records of the Corporation, or
(b) by any other

                                       7


method permitted by law (including but not limited to overnight courier service,
telegram, or facsimile or other form of electronic transmission, provided such
other form of electronic transmission creates a record that may be retained,
retrieved, and reviewed by the recipient thereof, may be directly reproduced in
paper form by such recipient, and such recipient has consented to the delivery
of notice by such method). All notices shall be deemed to be delivered and given
at the time when the same is deposited in the United States mail, delivered to
the overnight courier service or telegram service, or transmitted by facsimile
or other form of electronic transmission, as applicable, and in each case with
any and all charges prepaid and addressed as aforesaid.

      5.2 Waiver. Whenever any notice is required to be given to any
stockholder, director, or committee member of the Corporation by statute, the
certificate of incorporation of the Corporation, or these bylaws, a waiver
thereof in writing signed by the person or persons entitled to such notice,
whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be equivalent to the
giving of such notice. Attendance of a stockholder, director, or committee
member at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except
where such person attends for the express purpose of objecting to the
transaction of any business on the ground that the meeting is not lawfully
called or convened.

                                   ARTICLE VI

as may be assigned to him by the board of directors, the Chairman of the Board,

of the stockholders in books provided for that purpose, and he shall attend to
the giving and service of all notices. He may sign with the Chairman of the
Board or the President, in the name of the Corporation, all contracts of the
Corporation and affix the seal of the Corporation thereto. He may sign with the

books, and stock papers as the board of directors may

                                       9


direct, all of which shall at all reasonable times be open to inspection by any
director upon application at the office of the Corporation during business

Corporation or a facsimile thereof. If any officer, transfer agent, or registrar
who has signed, or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon, a certificate
has ceased to be such officer, transfer agent, or registrar before such
certificate is issued, such certificate may be issued by the Corporation with
the same effect as if he were such officer, transfer agent, or registrar at the
date of issue. The certificates shall be consecutively numbered and shall be
entered in the books of the Corporation as they are issued and shall exhibit the
holder's name and the number of shares.

      7.2 Replacement of Lost or Destroyed Certificates. The board of directors
may direct a new certificate or certificates to be issued in place of a
certificate or certificates theretofore issued by the Corporation and alleged to

or destroyed. When authorizing such issue of a new certificate or certificates
the board of directors may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to
the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost or destroyed certificate or
certificates, or his legal representative, to advertise the same in such manner
as it shall require and/or to give the Corporation a bond with a surety or
sureties satisfactory to the Corporation in such sum as it may direct as

of succession, assignment, or authority to transfer, the Corporation or its
transfer agent shall issue a new certificate to the person entitled thereto,
cancel the old certificate, and record the transaction upon its books.

      7.4 Registered Stockholders. The Corporation shall be entitled to treat
the holder of record of any share or shares of stock as the holder in fact

otherwise provided by law.

the committee members, as the case may be, entitled to vote with respect to the
subject matter thereof, and such consent shall have the same force and effect as

directors or committee members, as the case may be, and may be stated as such in
