What's been your experience with the jack pad? I also saw someone else posted about using a hockey puck which seems reasonable since it will have some friction on both sides.
As far as the lug bolt guide goes, is one enough to do the job? Thanks.
Interesting....I wonder if there is a weight difference on the per jack point with all four raised at the same time vs. just one. Although I speak from experience...just look under my daughter's 325i

The Reverselogic pad fits within the jack cradle similar to the hockey puck picture above. The R. pad works ok, not exactly the "sliced bread" I thought it would be. In fact one of the rubber end spacer ripped off the first time I used it.
