I would just leave them in and drive a little higher than you are on your coils. Problems with removing the front liners at least on most cars will be a extremely dirty engine bay all the time.

Depending on which way you set them up it will allow you to either raise or lower the car an 1" (or whatever length stroke the aircup is).

Between the road noise and music you wont even hear them. I have dual 444c in my cars and on the road I can't even hear them kick on. So no deadening here

Or if you have the cash get a AirZenith OBD2 compressor. I had one in my old b7 A4 and it was virtually silent, but $500
