i enjoy seeing others post their car pictures...thought i would post some ...haven't washed my car (except the wheels) in a few months..as you can really see in one of the rear shots.? the last shot is my stop light in the garage...(didn't order park distance control)..but it helps parking in my garage.

Use the same garage stop light for my wife as she can never learn how her car fits in the garage. Once I get my 6er I may have to have left or right "Stop light" for her as well just to keep her on her own side.

i believe they were around $100...i ordered them when i got the car. they pop in and out....there is a possibility that you may break them when removing. however the new ones pop in nicely.

[/quote]i just found my invoice and it shows the following:
51-13-7-065-701 $92.05
51-13-7-065-702 $92.05
not sure which one is left and which one is right but both of them are chrome. the prices show above are list price. you can always ask for discount

Please tell me more about the garage light. I've never seen one. How well do they work and where do you get them. I have a three car garage but one of the spaces is a tandem parking spot. The big SUV gets pretty close to the weekend fun car. Any thoughts other than the wiffle ball hung from the cieling would be appreciated.

in the picture, you'll see a wire that drops down. this is the motion sensor that i aimed at the bumper. you can adjust the distance to when the red light activates...something around 18" to 8 feet. when pulling in the garage, around 8 feet or so you'll get a flashing green light. as you drive closer, it stays green until you've reached your preset..and you get a red light. it was about $20 and i got it at radio shack (electronics store). it runs on battery or an outlet. it works great backing in too. i've had it about a year and never had a problem with it.
i've also seen lasers that show a red beam that you can aim on your dash...but the stop light works best for me. i rather be looking out front of the car for a indicator.
