[Roadsters] Replacement Jacks

[Mark Dent]

I just grabbed a scissors type jack from the junkyard,  all cars since about 
1983 have them.  I grabbed one from a Sentra from what I remember, because 
the lug wrench was the same, and had a nice pouch.  Turn it sideways in one 
of the trunk wells and hand crank it to press a little and it won't move. 
If you carry a spare tire, Saab and BMW have thiers packaged in a round 
block of foam the fits inside the rim.
