Jacking points for C320 Coupe

Anyone know where the jacking points for a floor jack are for a 2003 C320 Sport Coupe? or even a diagram showing them?

It's getting warmer and it's almost time to put the summer wheels on.

TIA

Jack Points

I have a C230 and jack points are behind the front wheels and in front of the rear wheels. They're small U shaped rubber cups.

Due to the shape of the points, I know there are people on this forum who built a SS adapter to prevent jack dishes from crushing the rubber pieces. My floor jack has a small enough dish that I was able to fit the jack in the "U" of the jack points.

Look under the car for yourself. This post probably does not make any sense without looking at it yourself.

I use a Micro$oft Access manual wrapped around with duct tape as a cushioning pad between the floor jack dish and whatever jack point I choose. The only application I trust a Micro$oft product.

Microsoft gets a little expensive after a while as they seem to come out with updates and quit supporting older versions too soon.....

Couldn't care less... I put enough duct tape to keep all the bugs inside. It is not connected to the internet either - the ultimate and only way to keep a MS-based server secure

Hmmm, funny about that, I did read the owners manual and it doesn't mention a FLOOR JACK anywhere.

Yup, a floor jack, not the dinky toy jack that MB (and most mfg's provide) but a real honest floor jack.
