Car lift question

My floor jack won’t get high enough to lift my wife’s Acura.
I was going to use a block of wood but then I found these jack extenders in a google search.

Looks like a great idea. Anybody tried these?

I once got a set of hard plastic "pucks" that fit into holes on the frame of my Corvette that gave an extra 1.5 inches of lift, and protected the frame from the jack scratching it too. Not sure who the manufacturer was, but I got them from Corvettes of Dallas. Guy there named Jeff orders all their stuff and would know the supplier name if you are interested...

I've never heard of jack not being able to lift an Acura high enough. What do you have, a 4x4 TL or something?
