My HHR has a new set of bawls?

HA! You thought it was a dirty post didn't you!

I still was having problems with people being blind and not paying attention to my rear end (sorry) so I added snow plow guides and tennis balls. I can see them perfectly in my side view & people stay away from me now.

Tennis Balls from the $1 store (3 in a pack) and the snow plow guides were only $12.99 at Advance Auto online. Everywhere else I looked for guides they were $30-$60. I then bought wing nuts to make it easy to take them off when I am not using the hitch tray. Link below to Advance Auto Parts were I got um. Had them shipped to the store for free. They also come in safety orange-red but those came with a straight bracket, the yellows came as a 45 degree bracket.

They look like they do from the angle of the picture but not as much as you think. Just enough to get people nervous enough to stay away and can see how far I can back up with my side view mirrors without hitting anything.

I thought after all these years, I'd pretty much seen it all.....until now!
I'd laugh my bawls off, if someone can along, reached out with a tennis racket, and served one of your bawls. "Moon"

Thats pretty GAUDY looking, (AS IN UGLY!)

I think your HHR is ASHAMED of you. LOL (I can hear a little voice SCREAMING "HELP MEEEEE HELLLP MEEEEEEEEE!") (think of the original movie The Fly at the end when he is caught in the spiders web)

Looks like something youd see in one of the Revenge of The NERDS movies.

Get a Rear View Camera setup if your having trouble backing up and knowing just how far back to go.

And anyone who walks by and hits there chin, Deserves it if they arent paying attention as they walk in my book.

Sorry, I do Like the little trailerette for hauling stuff like that lawn mower, but I wouldn't be caught Dead with that dingleball setup on my car.

That sure takes the Coolness factor of the HHR right out the window there.

Poor little HHR, I Feel your PAIN!
