Anybody have some shots of the console door spring installed. I'm having some problems installing mine in the new repro console. I think they didn't put the hole in for the other end of the spring or i'm totally stumped on the way this installs. The assembly manual was no help at all. Looking at the photos am I going in the right direction, sometimes its always the smallest details that create the most havoc :hammer:

yes there should be a 3/16 hole for the spring to go into.

If you're working on the shiny side of things, you're doing it wrong. Ask me how long it took ME to figure that out. Flip the console over, you need to be working from the bottom. Pix to follow in a minute.
EDIT: SORRY! I didn't realize you were showing the underside already, my bad. But definitely looks like you are missing a crucial hole!

This seems to be working for me (note that I did not say that this was the CORRECT way to install it--although I believe that it is--just that it seems to work well in my application :-))
