I can't tell you exactly where it goes as it is not a totally exact science and I don't have my box out. What I can tell you is it helps a lot if you rivet a 1/16" piece of sheet metal on the outside of the box there to prevent the hole from ovaling out.

This is what happened on my Charger's box and the helper spring was getting stuck because of the ovaled hole. I mean, it just plastic so it's gonna happen. I riveted on the sheet metal, drilled it and ground a small circle around the hole for the spring to rotate in and that fixed it. If yours is broken here, you may consider doing this.

That spring gets under a good amount of tension and will pull itself through a glue repair pretty easily.

Just my two cents

Many thanks for enlighten me. I would see that in a couple years, otherwise.

Really good upgrade to the original box, I will do that definitely too.

Now let's find, where the hole goes, I think I will ask DMT directly.

I just make the foam pieces

I can see if I have pieces from an old E A/C heater box at the shop to get measurements from.
