Regulator spring shot off while swapping motor.

So the regulator spring that assists in rolling the window up flew off inside the door while i was changing the window motor. It didn't catch me, but now i don't know how to get it back in place on the regulator due to all the tension it has. I tried spinning the regulator around the motor to hook the spring, but after not even getting that far it slipped and gashed a finger. Im so friggen afraid of that thing im considering forking over the money to buy an already assembly motor/regulator if theres no safe and easy way to get this thing on.

Any info would be great on how to install this spring.
