So I have a baggie filled with springs which are either pyramidal in shape or have the same size on both ends.  Which springs go where? 
I'm finishing the interior install and it's been so long since I removed all of these items I don't recall exactly their proper location.
A diagram would be helpful.
Thanks,

The pyramid shaped ones go behind the door panels where the handles fix. These are to keep the panel tight to the back of the escutcheon without showing some of the shaft.

Thanks, Steve.  They did not seem to fit underneath the escutcheon piece the handle or winder goes through.
Any thoughts on the other symmetrical springs?

Would it be possible to get a picture of the spring? ???

Hi Sheldon,

Here is a photo of the springs.

Just confirming thats the springs that go behind the door panels. Looks like someone lost one and had to use a parallel one to make up the numbers as you need 6 for a 2 door and more for 4 doors. I have seen all sorts used over the years.
