I don't have a picture sadly, but it's super simple. There's a small hole on the frame of the glove box (dash part) right up top. Slot one end of the spring in there on both sides. Then the other part of the spring goes to the glove box door. I can't remember if the other hole is In the glove box door itself or the circular hinge part, but either way, the other half of the spring goes there. I expected some convoluted thing to happen with the spring when the door open and closed but it doesn't. It's simply a V shape when you install it, and the whole spring rotates to a > shape when it's closed.
