VPI HW-19 Springs

Maybe someone can refresh me as to which springs went with the VPI HW-19 series, Mk1/3/3/4, I have a HW-19 that started out as a first generation HW-19 and updated over the years to Mk4. I have multiple sets of springs that are black, silver and gold. Some of the spring caps are stainless steel, others are black plastic and others are black plastic with three silver metal dots on top. If someone could narrow down the correct springs for the MkIII and MkIV I'd appreciate the help.

My MkIII had two black and two silver springs, all with black plastic top caps with three silver metal hemispheres on top (these made sliding the chassis easier for centering in the base). The different colored pairs of springs were supposed to be placed catercorner from each other, but I've forgotten which color was supposed to be where - I long since replaced the springs with NavCom Silencers, and think that on the whole they provide a more stable soundstage and more accurate sound. Hope this helps.
