Buy some wheel ramps instead. Much quicker and less messing about unless you need to remove a wheel. I use two bits of scaffold board to soften the angle and reduce any possibility of the lowered car hittting the ramp with the front lip.

I think you just put them on the jacking points notsure.gif , I just normaly jack my car up and leave it on a jack and work from under :p . I also think the Astra has a section near the jacking points to put the axle stands on. I will see if I can get a picturs, but it may not work well as it's dark :LOL:
