Look under the sides of the car for the arrows for the jack to go.......then place stands in that general area.......I found the same thing when looing under mine.......they dont gove a lot of room for stands when the jack is in the way.........and ramps.......well good luck there............car too low........BZ

To fix the buldge......good old american sledge hammer to floor board........work from the outer edge to the center and it will shrink away.........just like new.........worse comes to worse I can fix it........Brian

Use a piece of wood to hammer on, may help disperse the impact of the hammer over a larger area and will allow you to hit it harder without worry of punching thru the floorboard, just a thought, good luck.

I place jack stands directly under the place where the subframe bolts to the chassis under where the bolt goes up, right behind the front wheels, toward the middle a bit. It sits just fine there (with jacks on both sides) and doesn't mess with the bolts or bend anything.
