How to measure direction the car is coming to garage door? my garage door is pretty narrow, about 10 cm (4") on each side of my car's rear mirrors. So every time I drive to garage, I need to go very slowly because I am afraid I might not be lined up correctly. 

I am thinking about using Arduino and some sensors to help me. Output is pretty simple, just two leds, one for each side, showing me if I should turn little right or left to have perfect lineup to center. This I can handle with no problem

What I am asking for is idea how to measure the alignment of my car. I know how to use ultrasonic sensors for measuring distance. But I am not sure they are suitable for this project, because I want preferably to put arduino and sensors in my garage, not in my car. 

Any idea how to work this out ?
It is very hard to determine position accurately there is a new project on kickstarter called Pozyx, you can look at that but that's expensive, to be honest this sounds like a job for hanging tennis balls or strings or something like that. But if you have a lot of money to blow and you just want a project go for it, you may be able to do this with ultrasonic sensors but I reckon that would be painful. Anyway good luck
