I've been using the BMW pucks for 4 years, you just snap them in and they stay in. You don't have to remove them like the aluminum ones because they only stick down about 3/4", and once you snap them in they won't fall out when you drive, as I said mine have been in for 4 years. Plus they're cheaper than the aluminum ones, $28 as opposed to about $50. Here a link to a thread where you can get all the info, go to the second page, it's got the part number and a link to bavarian auto where you can buy them.

That had to be caused by one of the aluminum pucks, the BMW pucks are made of some kind of plastic, they only stick down less than 3/4" and are tapered so they couldn't catch on anything and even if they did somehow catch on something they would either snap right out or break they are only plastic, they couldn't really cause any damage to the hole. Thats one of the reasons I bought mine. They're convient, just snap them in and forget them, and when I bought mine they were cheap, but now that they cost more than the aluminum ones, I think I'd have to go with hockey pucks and take them out everytime, or go with the rocker savers with the built in jacking pad.
You are correct,They were the metal ones

Hey, you missed out on these. Over engineered jacking pucks.
They are pretty easy to make but they have still have to be made in a way that they will stick in place.

I made 5. One for my floor jack and 4 to keep in the car for vendor lifts.
Bought 5 hockey pucks for .99 ea and 5 eye bolts and recessed nuts. Drill holes insert eye bolts into nuts and done. Very easy and cheap.
