Are these the springs you used? Did you need any other parts/bolts other than listed below?

2x Spring 4M0-511-115-EG
2x Lower Seat 4M0-512-297-B
2x Upper Seat 4K0-512-149-F
that’s all you need
also report to the NHTSA

Self locking nut loses its effectiveness after first use. It’s supposed to be replaced every time.
