Default Lift points - floor jack

Hi everyone,

I saw in the owner's manual about the central front/rear points for using a floor jack but are you guys aware of the best point to lift on the side? I'd like to remove the tires to clean and wax them (including the interior) but would rather do a side lifing.

Sorry for the dumb question but I am sure there is someone who can help me - and for the record, I am willing to accept some verbal abuse for the newbie question *lol*

Just go somewhat easy though....

why not just do one corner at a time? with a floor jack it doesn't take much time to get the car off the ground and back down. I mean I get you can take two off at a time but I'd rather you take your time than take the chance of messing something up.

^^ That is what I want to do....Do one wheel at a time and that is why I was hoping to find the side lift points (front the front and rear) and not have to lift the whole front or the whole rear.

When I look at the side skirts, there are two little arrows underneath....are these OK?

That's exactly where they go. That's what the arrows are for.
