Place the stands on the indented area of the pinch welds, these are the same lift points you saw in the FSM.
I use the rubber spacers from harbor freight on the stands to keep from damaging the pinch wlds.

If I'm using the OEM jack (and I don't), then I'd place it on the pinch welds as the FSM states. But I've messed up too many pinch welds on too many cars with standard shop floor jacks. Now I only jack the car from the diff pumpkin in the rear, or the main crossmember in the front. I put jackstands at the points where the subframes bolt onto the main frame rails.
