Help on jack stand points please

Need to put the front end of my mk3 1.2 on stands tomorrow for some jobs. Just want to make sure I've got the stand points right. I know I put the trolley jack here...

Am I right in thinking I'd put the stands under the ridge in this photo...

Don't want to end up putting the stand through the floor or dropping the car.
Thanks in advance

Dom.

They should be fine Dom. Personally though, I use the bracket a bit further up which ties the rear subframe to the chassis floor.

Cheers @MicKPM, I'll have a look for it. I was also thinking or maybe jacking somewhere Central then putting the stands under the two jacking points from the first photo
