I'm not familiar with the Aussie model designations - where does XL lie?

In the US, the top two trim levels have 10mm lower ride height - you might be able to score some of those springs, unless you want to go lower still.

here the XL (base model) and the XLS (the premium model) are the same height. The AWD Sports model is lower / different suspension (I think).

I'd be interested in lowering my XLS also.

I'd be interested in lowering my XLS as well, does anyone know if the springs from the Sport model can be used to get that same ride height?

Has anyone else lowered theirs, and what did you use, where did you go etc?

What springs did you use and who installed them?

I want to lower mine too and am interested in the road race motorsport springs.
