Try downloading the service manual. Page 39 of the general section has all the info you need.

Something solid, as in the frame. On left and right side there is a "long straight line," if you will, and that is where you put the jack to jack the car up, just make sure that it is even

Unless I want the suspension handing down (not normally), I jack just behind each wheel, on the strongest parts of the suspension. When you have a floor jack on wheels, it is easy to roll to that position.

Under the rockers are notches that look like theyre cut outs but that is where the stock jacking location is

I've tried downloading the FSM and I can never make it open. What's the trick?

The file is incomplete. I had to download it four times to get a working copy. What happens is some of the bits get lost or dropped and the file fails to decompress. Just keep at it, or pm me your email and operating system. I will send you the page you want. The whole file is to big for email.

Yeah like he said. There are small notches in the metal with about a 1" space between them, that is the spot you are supposed to put the jack. Theres one behind the front wheels and infront of the rears.

Well I looked at a copy of the FSM and found out where the floor jack lift points are. In the rear it appears to be the aluminum casting centered between the wheels.
In front there are two jacking points, on the subframe reinforced area where the lower control arm attaches. The side rocker panel rib where you put the tire changing jack from the trunk can be used, but you need a U shaped adaptor to apply the force correctly. I've bent up some of those ribs trying to put a floor jack directly on them.
