Jacking a Convertible
I have a 98 convertible, and I was wondering if there was any special method of jacking a vert. I have searched, and all i get are generic jacking instructions for a C5. Any opinions or advice would be appreciated.

C5 was designed from the ground up to be a convertible, which means that it's fairly stiff roofless; apart from the benefits towards handling, the relevance to your question is that there are no special requirements to jack up a C5 convertible. Don't need to open the doors, etc. Just slap those jacking pucks into the right spots and go, or use the crossmembers (with wood or rubber in between, I'd say.)
