For the life of me I cannot get these two springs attached. I can get them on either in the hole on the door itself or the housing for the door, but not both. You can't possibly get your fingers behind the housing to attach the springs on both ends. This is driving me nuts. Somebody please help me before I lose my mind. Thank you.

I agree as well. I took mine off part way to get to the nuts for the dash pad. It took me nearly an hour and a half to get ONE spring back on. Good luck!
