2+2 Jacking Points

Hi, can someone tell me where the jacking points are on a 2+2? We have replaced all floor panels on mine, but have no idea where the jacking points were. TIA, Chris

On the 2+2 there are 2 points on each side (as opposed to one on other models) They are on the floor pan, and the front one is 15 inches back from the rear of the front tyre. They look like a metal stud.
A wel known jag man told me, however, that they aren't the strongest in the world, and it's better to jack up under stronger sections under the car.

I've spent some time looking at this. My car's been fully restored, yet still many engineers have suggested I do not use them. There's lots of useful threads about this, including alternative jacking points:
