easy trick here:
- leave the trigger in the gearbox such that one spring leg is on the triger and the other leg which normally goes against the mechbox shell is "outside" the mechbox
- put a small screwdriver in the spring guide to hold the guide and spring in place
- put top half of mechbox on (do not screw yet)
- take out small screw driver and make sure everythign is aligned and working (gears move, tappet plate moves etc)
- open the bottom portion of the mech box where the trigger is *just* enough to fith the thickness of the spring
- use a small screw driver or whatever to pry the spring in the opening and position the spring such that it's again the shell.

done, easy, and you can do it without th help of other people. It will take you a couple tried to get this right, but the point is that the top portion of the mechbox is still closed so your opening the case like a clam shell and only enough for the thickness of the spring (1 or 2mm)

hope this helps
