rear passenger side of the motor above the a-arm i believe. take your passenger side front wheel off and look behind the vent for your brakes. should be by that.

Under a jacked car? Never... But wotta pain it is to get mine up on the ramps... because I can't drive up; the chin spoiler hits the ramps. This is the only car i have where I have to jack it up under the engine cradle and put jackstands on either side because the nose won't clear the ramps.

If I jack up one A-arm at a time, _then_ I can lift the front wheels high enough to just place the ramp under the tire and lower it down; that's what I had to do last weekend to change the stabilizer link bolts. Would have been nice to change the oil after all that hassle, too, except it's not due for a long time yet.

ill probly jack up the passenger side and stick the ever popular cinder block under the tire and then see what it looks like if i can manage to get under there i can do it.thats the problem though is getting more than my head under there.
