It took us a while, but it works perfectly! Remote controls work, safety sensors work... Best Christmas present ever.

The thumbnail utterly made me think this was some bugatti branded veyron-front-lookalike thingy you had done...

Yep! No more scraping ice off the Vibe for the wife anymore. [Looks out at my vehicles parked on the street]. Sorry guys.

There hasn’t been ice on my car for weeks. I don’t know where you live, but I know the climate shouldn’t be any different.

Actually, it ices over quite often here. We live on the high point in our neighborhood, and even though the weather says it’s 35 in our city, it’ll be 31 where we are.

The holes in the bottom, those are so the bugs fall out onto the floor, mine doesn't have holes.

I have a guardian spider on the door that does a good job of clearing out the gnats.

I spent last Monday installing one at my parents’ house with my dad. I gave it to him for his 70th birthday. In fact it might be the exact same one you installed*. The hardest part was taking out the old one and adjusting the straps to fit the new one since his garage has a finished ceiling.

*Nope, yours is belt drive. The one I gave him was chain drive.

Yeah I obviously have a barren garage, but it really is nice knowing where all the solid stud backing is!

Hey thanks for pointing that out. I might just add some holes in my Genie next time I’m changing light bulbs.
