could someone take a picture of how the spring is hooked for the ash tray door?

I was removing the manual switch for my electric fan and I must have altered the spring because now the ash tray door will not open and close properly. the spring and tab are both intact, but I can't get the spring set so the door functions properly.

any help would be great I don't want to pull the console out.

Thanks.

I can't take pics, but the 'Z' end of the spring goes into the ashtray door while the other end goes into the bracket. The coil will be towards the inside of the panel. Looks like it would be kind of a pain to install without taking the panel out.
