What sensors did you install for parking inside the garage?

See the link below to the write up. Since, I installed a 12” diameter mirror so I can see the green light without turning my head back for forward parking.
The IR beam sender/retroreflector/sensor are at height working for front-in or back-in parking.

I even installed a 30 amp receptacle in the garage to keep it plugged in. A few neighbors have asked about it and said how nice it is. I've told them it's a travel van. But we spend over half of the year away so it won't be here too often. If no one says anything I may extend the driveway like others have done so it won't block the garage. Fingers crossed. I do have family property to park it with 30 amp if this doesn't work out.
HOA restrictions:
Landscaping is the answer (if you have space). I planted a wall of fast growing bushes to hide it from the neighbors. So far, so good.
