Mine works, but I made it myself from a gizmo I bought on Amazon.

What? Then I guess my wife has a "magic" car, since the gate opens every time we drive up...

Ed Ingalls put mine in. Love it. Works great.

I have one but I have to drive within a couple of inches of the sensor. It also fails to work at least one gate.

Is this typical or is there a better one available?

The exact model I have is no longer available, but this one looks like mine. You also need to buy some stick-on discs, the larger the better, but it is difficult to find discs that are larger than 25mm. I have found the it works better if you use 3 discs inside the mirror, but you still need to pull within a few inches of the gate box.

They all still work if yours doesn’t work it’s because yours is broke or something. but mine works just fine. But you do have to get close to the chip reader at the gate.
