Default 2005 coil springs( search not working right)

I tried searching this site( search is screwing up) & a few others with mixed results( nothing concrete).
My question is has anyone put lowering springs on a 2005? I have seen many for the 01-04. Some sites list for 04-05 & 01-03, & some say 01-up.

I just want to know of 01-04 springs will fit an 05. I'm looking for a progressive rate for under $200. I found a set of Vogtland for $126 but they say only up to 04.
Any info to help me get this thing lowered would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the link.
I know H&R makes them for the vert. But not the "sport wagon". They are a different stiffeness, as the vert's weigh more.

Tomorrow, i'm going to be on the phone with some companies, to find out( all I called today, I couldnt get anyone. I'm also going to the dealership to look at the part numbers.

I lowered the rear on my '05. I do not believe there is any change to the springs - the ones I took off looked exactly like the ones I took off my '02. Lots of things don't show '05 - like my K&N FIPK - I got them anyway, have yet to have a problem.

QSD, how about the fronts? Did the rear give the same drop as your old car?
I talked with a few manufactures today( the "tech's" that awnser the phones) & they said they dont offer for the 05. They ofcouse couldnt tell me why, as they have no clue.
