Or is there a middle of the car jack point say somewhere under the driver door and one on the passenger side under that door.

Forgive my ignorance...but I just want to be sure not to mess it up. I am sure I can look at the manual but if someone has a great solution that is easier, etc then I am all for it.
Using the rear point behind the door (in front of the rear tire) will lift the entire side of the car. It should give enough space to put both stands under for that height (which is about how I had mine set yesterday). Though I am cautious, I haven't had any issues lifting the entire car off of the ground this way.
