Reinstall headlamp: picture request

I'm having trouble installing and aiming my new headlights. I have an '86 with the all in one large style bulb. I removed everything to clean and repaint but made the mistake of not taking a quick picture for reassembly. I think I have the spring in the wrong spot
I'd really appreciate a picture if someone has their grill and bezel off already

I've got my whole front end out right now. Do you need a picture of that?

You should never change/remove your aiming springs with halogen bezels.
I have composite headlights in both my toyotas.
Guess you learned a hard lesson with this one.

which spring are you referring to? i don't remember one anywhere in the headlight, corner marker light/bezel, or grill.

I have an '86 that does not have composite lamps. If you have the same, I'm looking for a shot for where the spring on the outside of the ring attaches. 81121 in the attached diagram

Mystery solved: on the lower corner of the chrome ring, there is a small tab folded out to catch one end of the spring. On the housing, there are two holes that the spring catches
