If you are driving up another option are hotel park and fly's where the hotel sells it as a package or does it for around $8-$10/day after your stay.

Sorry if this is a tad late, but perhaps helpful for the future.
Did you consider taking the train, either Amtrak or Coaster/Metrolink? You can get off at the Tustin station, which has a $1 shuttle bus to SNA. It may be less traffic/stress if you're driving at rush hour, but probably more time-intensive if you're going at non-peak times. Here's the shuttle schedule: http://www.cityofirvine.org/civica/f...p?BlobID=18544
Another thought would be to park (free) at the Irvine station (tell security how long you're staying so they don't tow you after 72 hours), and take the OCTA bus or a cab to SNA.
For convenience over cost, definitely Main Street parking or a hotel package.
For even more convenience, how about renting a car one way?
