- BTW - I knew a person who drove his car into the garage and worked
- on doing it until it was positioned perfectly - then, he took a
- long piece of twine and attached a soft object (ball, sponge, etc)
- to it - then he hung the twine from the rafters, letting it down
- far enough so the soft object just touched his windshield and secured
- the twine at the top - after that, both he and his wife could drive
- into the garage and stop when the soft object made contact with
- his windshield.....
