There is a jacking point on your TL right in the middle about 1 1/2 feet from the nose. It was a little hole in the middle. It is in your owner's manual too. I don't have a pict to show you, but if you look you will see it. Is at the end of the plastic underbody cover.

Jack WAAAAAY up
I had the same problem. I had to jack the car up until the front tire completely cleared the ground, then it fit like a charm. Hope this helps.
