Anyone have trouble installing new glove box hinge?

I bought a new hinge from LMC but it doesn't seem to fit right. If I put it on the way it should be where the spring is tight when it closes it is low and doesn't latch on the striker. When I flip it it hits the striker and works properly but has a gap at the bottom of the door between the dash and glovebox. I can take pics tomorrow just wondering if anyone has had this problem.

That's kinda what I figured. It almost seems like it was made backwards and the spring should be flipped.
