I gave up on that spring a long time ago, it always breaks. I glued a lead flat weight under my ashtray door that keeps it closed, but still allows it to stay open because the way the door is designed, it has that funky counterbalance hinge.

Here are the instructions for the Mavromont ash tray door fix. I bought the kit and it worked like a charm.
