how much are you lowered? the best place is right in the middle of the engine area toward the front of the car. there is a jack point to raise the whole front of the car up with 1 point then put the jack stands on the sides right behind the front tires (there is a small arrow on the bottom of the car that points to the side jack spots).

just jack up the right front (passanger) wheel.. you can reach the oil filter and the drain plug from there. there isnt a problem with gettin all the oil out because the oil pan leans that way with the same grade your jackin up the car.

I change the oil in mine 99tl Nave without jacking it. Turn the front wheels all the way to the right for better access to the oil filter then just change the oil. No need to raise the front of the car at all. What a change from the 91 Accord! Ramps=oil all over the place etc.
