 Simple device that does the job.Aug 08, 2006
By HI Roller
"Gadget Lover"
After reading the other reviews, I had to speak up. I've tried it all: the garage bump, the stop light type system, etc. You mount this unit on the ceiling and point it to a specific point on your car so you know where to stop. In my case, I point it at the dash. When I enter the garage, the laser turns on and because the laser is very bright, you can follow it as it tracks along your hood. If you set it up right, this helps you set the distance between your cars or the side garage wall. For example, you can set it to run only the seam of your hood or the middle crease if you have one. Then when it reachs the dash, I watch for it to land in a specific area and stop. A successful park, usually with only an inch or two variance. It so rocks!

 Works WellMar 01, 2009
By J. Hudson
I have tried the wall mount parking systems and was not happy with the way they worked. I want my car parked so the rear bumper just clears the garage door, so I thought I would try this laser indicator.
The laser projects a very visible, bright red dot that I have aligned to the edge of my dash. It doesn't get any easier then that. Pull the car into the garage until the dot is at the edge of the dash and your in.
Installation is very easy - figure out where you want it on the ceiling and install 3 small screws. Keep in mind when you pick your location that you would normally plug the AC adapter into the same outlet you plug your garage door opener into. There should be plenty of cord with the adapter for most peoole
I found that when I was out walking around in my garage, the built in motion detector would activate the laser, even if I was in front of my car. I didn't like the idea of having the laser on when it didn't really need to be on. So, I bought a "light socket to plug adapter" (google it) from my local Home Depot for less then $1. My garage door opener has two light bulbs built in. I removed one of the light bulbs and screwed in the plug adapter. I then plugged the ac adapter for the laser indicator into that plug. Now, the laser will only turn on when the garage door opener light is on. (When I open the garage door, the light turns on and if the door is open for a while, if I cross the electric eye at the front of the garage the light will turn on). If the light is on, this means the laser indicator is will get power and it will probably turn on also.
I give this product a 4 instead of 5 stars because you can only adjust the laser in one direction - from the front of the garage to the back. It would be nice if you could adjust it from side to side, but the laser sits in a "slot", so you can't

Cool gadget!Nov 12, 2006
By J. Coonrod
This little gadget works well! It's easy to install, the motion detector works as advertised, and most importantly, it does help us park our cars accurately in our crowded garage. I tried other devices, but they didn't work.
I'm glad I bought these little dealios. They've made my life infinitely better, my wife is happier, and my dog likes me again.

Garage LaserJan 18, 2007
By Warren A. Wickland
This parking assist works as described. Its easy to install but the laser doesn't stay on long enough and even with the car in motion the light sometimes goes off before the car comes to a stop because it doesn't detect motion on the smooth, one-color surface. My wife can't see the light on the front of the hood because she line of view is lower than mine, however, I find it working fine.

 Timer is too shortOct 18, 2010
By steve
It's on only for about 15 seconds. The sensitivity of the motion sensor is low.
