- You don`t really need this. Here is what my parents did...
-
- Pull the car into the garage and position it in the manner in which you
- would like to have it parked. Then, tie a ping-pong ball or similar object
- to the roof rafters of the garage, and have it hang down. Position the ping-
- pong ball so that it just touches your windshield. Then, whenever you pull
- into the garage, just pull up until the ping-pong ball touches your
- windshield, and you will be perfect every time.
-
- Satisfaction guaranteed or your money back.
