Hello,

I'm considering a mid- or low-rise scissor lift to make access to interiors=
, brakes and suspension easier.  I find I avoid interior and dash work beca=
use its so low to the ground I struggle to get and stay that low for any le=
ngth of time.  I already have a two-post lift so access to the underside is=
n't an issue, but access to the interior is difficult with the arms and pos=
t in the way of the door opening.

My concern is whether the popular brands will fit under Triumphs and simila=
r cars.  Does anyone have any experience with these on our cars?  Specifica=
lly I'm concerned about the narrower width of our cars and that we can't li=
ft on "pinch" welds like most modern cars.  Some come with arms and posts t=
o select lift points, others come with rubber blocks to allow specific poin=
ts to be used for lifting.

Here's the type of thing I'm looking at:
