they attach to a lower part of a fender,
are like a foot long or so,
are mounted at a 45 degree downward angle,
and they are made of like a spring (chromed for the bling factor)

They make a noise when you get within a few inches of anything.

That would be classic!!!!!!!!

The other approach is simply to keep in mind that the edge of the front tire is in alignment with the edge of the rear tire, so using the sideview mirror angled down a little and looking at the position of the rear tire you can infer the position of the front tire. :clapping:

Try raising the seat up for awhile that might help.

I am still getting used to the extra width of the H3 because I've been driving Jeeps and Toyotas for so long.

That's what I meant when I called them "curb finders" up above. LOL! Vette thought about using them in a vertical position on the fenders, but they wouldn't stay erect ... they are sorta floppy. :giggling:

pop rivit stuff to your truck
put a knob on the steering wheel
use glue or calk to stick things to the dash or interior
put old carpet pieces in your truck to protect your floor mats
put large mud guards with reflectors
retro fit accessories to your H3 from pick-ups
all these things are signs you should be driving a Buick.
