    Ok, if you are backing into the space on your right:

    Cut steers all the way left, begin backing until you trailer is 20- 30 degrees off center. Stop!

    Now cut all the way right, release brakes and back until cab is lined back up. Stop!

    You should be able to see inside edge/line/cone of spot you are trying to get into through your mirror.

    Now just straighten your wheels, let off brake and feather it in.
