Two quick BN1 (BN1L/153829) rear leaf spring related questions please:

1.  Regarding the aluminum wedge between the axle and the spring, which end
(fat or thin) goes toward the front?
2.  Does anyone have a used wedge I could purchase?  When reinstalling the
spring that had a wedge, I'd forgotten which way the wedge should be
positioned.  When I looked at the other spring to reference the wedge
direction, I saw that that wedge was broken in half, and half was was gone!
The wedge is made of aluminum and has the part number, 1B7352, stamped/cast
into it.  My e-mail is fiat500f at aol.com.
