that would be really helpfull!
manual bra its all in the manual.
the reinforced points on the side of the car are not what you would expect. they're very small like a couple inches in length and very skinny.

Yeah but you can't jack up the car enough with those. Everyone returns them because they barely raise the car. You can MAYBE jack it up to the first height of the jackstands, but I remember that I couldn't even do that!

bro i know where the points are for hydraulic-jack on the sides of the car, but do you have pics of the points where can i put 2 independent jacks??
as per manufacturer, so that the car does not drop on me??


sometimes if you do know what the answer is, it is better not say anything
