Anyone know a cheap place to install lowering Springs?

Girlfriend just bought a 04 PT cruiser and I ordered some lowering springs, 1.5" front and 2" rear drop. I will probably do the rears myself, but am looking for a cheap place to do the fronts. It may need an alignment after the fronts are done.
So does anyone know a cheap/reliable place in the Warren area?
Thanks,
Marco

Thanks for the quick reply. I called and spoke to Greg and he says he can't do them. Kinda confused on that one, since everyone says all you need is a spring compressor. So, anyone know of any other cheap installers in the area.
Thanks again for your help,
Marco

Thanks,
It seems like I am striking out, called belle tire and they said they don't install parts that they don't sell. So even though they can order the Goldline springs, they won't install them because I already have them, nice!

Mike,
I am under the impression that Greg thinks there is more involved than there really is. Only specialized tool is a spring compressor. On the phone, he sounded like he didn't have the necessary tools, but I am sure they have a spring compressor. If you talk to him, maybe he has a good explaination.
Either way he sounded like a nice guy.
Thanks,
Marco
