Default Push pins size and jack points

I want to order some push pins for my wheel wells and for my trunk liner sections. Does anyone know what mm size they are?? and when I work on my 01 is there a preferred spot front and back that I can use to jack up both sides at once from one spot and then put my jack stands under. Thanks

Floor jack points, you can use jack points left and right that are molded into the rocker panels, put then you are only jacking one wheel at a time. I prefer to use the jack point under the diff (this is both a jack point and a molded protector for the diff drain bolt) to lift both rear wheels. On the front there is a frame jack point under engine you can use to lift both front wheels.

To reach these jack points requires a low jack, and the front one is pretty far back. I find that even with my non-lowered car, I have to drive all 4 wheels onto 2x4s before I jack.

Of course, you can also use ramps if you aren't taking off the wheels. I need to use the 2x4 trick there as well.

Thanks for the tips, I use 2 x 4's now and its a pain. Going to Harbor Freight Tools and getting a 3 ton low boy today. It only weighs 54 lbs. itself and is on sale. Any ideas on mm size of pins?

Go here. I think you're referring to part number 20.

Majestic Honda is wonderful for searching for and ordering specific parts. Although, for a couple of fender clips, I'd just go to the dealership.
