There is a long side and a short side to the spring. Put the long side agaist the radio side of the housing and put the other side agaist the door. BTW, only put in the right retainer in until you figure out if the door is closing right. Good luck.

I think it is the spring though, because it is incredibly easy to close compared to my stock door. It feels like i can sneeze and it would have enough force to close the door.

I think I might have figured it out. Since I broke my stock door/vent pieces I might have lost the spring. Since I had to transfer a bunch of pieces to the new vent piece the spring must have been a piece I needed from my old one. I guess it's time to stop by honda again. That make sense to anyone?
