Default Suspension and Aux Jack.

So when I got my S all I wanted to do was lower it. After owning it for more then a year now I can't decide if i want to put my money into coilovers that I may use for autocrossing (witch if I got into it would be a while). Or just get springs for the look that I want. Because in realitity all I want is that lowered look. Am I better off just using springs with my oem shocks? all I want is to eat up that gap between my fenders and wheels.

Also I've searched so much and all I find is Ipod stuff. Any ideas of where I could add in a headphone jack and make it look factory. I've though of next to the acc/lighter port, next to the head unit and right below the headunit. Either way any ideas would be great. I'm trying to stay away from in the glove box and away from not being able to close the radio door.

Please and thanks for all advice.

Ive been on the fence about springs vs coilovers for a while now too. ive done a bit of research on the matter such as reading reviews posted on here and test driving a friends S2k lowered with springs (Skunk2's) and one equipped with coilovers (KW V3). if you have the money to do so and will be using them for what they are designed for then coilovers are the way to go. fully adjustable height and dampening, you cant go wrong. but if you dont track your car often, your hometown roads suck, or all you want is that lowered look, then lowering springs make the most sense. just my opinion.

Yea I guess that's the other thing I've gotta do, find people with both and see witch feels better. I've looked around on other posts myself and the more I read the more it makes me want to just go to springs and shocks.
