Floor Jack points
Someone clue me in on the safe jacking points for a floor jack on these cars. I want to pull the wheels off and scrub them and get some old balance weight adhesive off them. I looked under and saw what appears to be a pad of some sort under the engine dead center but not sure what it's purpose is. Can't see anywhere safe in the rear so I figured I better ask first.

My 01 has a center pad near the front and one pad on each side under the front door area. They are for jacking up the car I have been told. I used them for removing my wheels and it went well.

Can anyone be more specific with the jack points to use on a W211? I am trying to get the car on stands, and I only see one point per wheel. I was hoping to jack it up and put a stand under it then lower it.
