Here's a cheap jack pad that works specifically for a Porsche 718. Take a good old hockey puck, drill a 1" dia. hole and insert a 1.5" long 3/4" (1"OD) PVC pipe.
The PVC pipe inserts into the jack point hole and holds the puck in place so it won't shift while jacking. I made up 4 of them for my Quickjack.

You can get new ones at Wally World inexpensively.

That's clever. I just saw this other video of this guy using some simple wire to stop the pucks falling out whilst you get your jack into place. Not sure if will work on a 718 but good idea if it works.

I got my used hockey pucks at a sporting goods store.

Hi Canuck, Another Canadian here, I pick up my 718 Boxster S tomorrow and wonder if you have a pic or video showing the jack points you used with your quick jack. I also have a quickjack and am interested in getting the wheels off ASAP for a good cleaning and waxing. Also did you sue the small quick jack pads withe the puck on top?

Cheers,

Jeff

i tried searching for jack pads on amazon and got a lot of results for corvette jack pads. They look very similar. Can anyone confirm fitment?

They are basically the same.

I picked up hockey pucks from the local ice house, told them I just wanted the ones that were no good anymore and they gave them to me. Said they were just going to the trash anyway.

I just use a piece of a 2x4.

I do too. Come to think of it, I can turn those pucks on my lathe. I have a chuck of Live Oak that would be perfect for this. Guess there's an afternoon project in there making
