Default traffic light

The wife always has a problem knowing when to stop in the garage, even with a tennis ball hanging from the ceiling.I think that I found a good fix.I mounted a traffic light that shins amber while the door is going up, green when fully up, and red when rear bumper clears doorway.Success so far!

When Linda has problems parking the SC I make her drive the LS 460L to teach her a lesson and get her head straight. Does not always work right away. Go figure?

I found mine on the local craigslist. Asking 150 I paid 100, had to clean up and paint. I just saw a couple available in different socal counties. Too bad your not in Dallas...they must be upgrading, for there is a pile of them for sale starting at 50 bucks!
