Who should I have install my Eibachs?

Dealer(Commonwealth Audi/VW) quoted $520 for install.
So $520 + $280(Audi/Eibach springs form Clair)= $800 or so.

I checked with a local wheel shop(Wheel Warehouse in Anaheim)
and they quoted $575 for springs and install. The springs from
WW are Eibach Pro-Kit springs. Since the Audi/Eibach springs do
not affect the warranty, can I assume the same about the Eibach
Pro-Kit springs installed by someone other than a dealer? If you
have these springs, who installed them? Is it worth paying the
extra $ just to have the dealer install the springs?

Any help is apreciated. Thanks.

Bought mine thru my dealer...they were 3 weeks out (at that time) for install...

checked several local speed-shops/references...selected one for the install/alignment. Dealer has asked me for shop name so they can direct customers who can't wait for a service appointment there for their spring install.
