Need Help!

I dropped the lid off my jB+ (stupid, should have unplugged it) in the engine bay. I got a flashlight and I can see it, it's in a spot where I can't get to it. I think I should jack up the car and see if I can get it from the bottom.

Question: Where should I jack the car up from?

and..

And it looks like there is a bottom cover that I need to take off: Is it just held on w/ screws?

jack it up from the side jack points or center jackpoint and remove all the 8mm screws that hold the large plastic shield in place then u can stick ur hand in there and grab it... Or alternatively, go get one of those extension claws that u can pick things up with and grab it from the top if u can see it

I tried the tape thing and now the tape is stuck!

I'm going to jack it up and take the plastic cover off. Is there a jack point right behind the driver's side wheel? I can't tell if it is or not. It seems to close to the fender.
