Now with all of your cd's out it's time to reassemble. Put all of your tracks back in sliding them over the pins.
Now put the springs on each side of the metal plate and just let them dangle.
Put your player on the edge of a ledge/shelf so you can drop the spings through the brackets on each side of the tracks. You want to be able to get the spring through to the bottom of the player.
The brackets
Now with the springs fished through their hole, turn the player carefully on its side. Make sure the tracks don't fall out or the springs come off their hooks.
With the springs poking out the bottom just join them together.
Now you are ready to put the player back in. Connect the ribbon cable and carefully slide it back in, making sure the ribbon cable doesn't get snagged on anything on the way back in.
Now reassemble the way you took it apart.
