Aren't there rings above and below the spring you have to twist to adjust ride height? I don't have coilovers, so I don't really know.

actually its loosen the bottom ring and then turn the middle ring. Turning the middle ring will not change the spring compression because there is a locking ring preventing the spring to move independently. So, by turning the middle ring after loosening the bottom ring the shaft of the coilover will just go down or up.

Yup! The megans are the V1 BCs. The new BCs are V2. Same adjustment procedure though. I think I posted that link in the howto section as well.
