Do you like your garage door open or closed when working on your car?

Personally, I like it open. I feel a little claustrophobic if it's closed.

right now it has to be open because there isnt enough room around the car if i close the door.

which really sucks when it gets cold around here.

I like the door open, natural light is great when working on my car I find.

I like open because that way I can see who's wondering around when I hear something. But if it is cold, I leave it open about a foot and turn on the BLAST FURNACE(aka....55,000 btu heater) :D

Closed, only because I have to. It is technically against my lease to work on my car in my garage. I'm not even supposed to change my oil.... So it stays closed, leaving a foot and half open for air. However, when I'm working on other projects I keep it open. Nothing's better than working on your car out in the open sun though.

When I had a garage, in the summer, the door was open. In the winter, it's closed.
