steering column help with small plastic triangle pieces

[BrianG]

I attempted to disable my tilt steering column today. I wanted to clean up the very crusty grease and give it a repaint and replace the gaskets that go over the shaft. Unfortunately I came to a point where I can't seem to get it apart any further. To make matters worse, two small plastic triangle pieces have come out and I'm not sure where they came from. I can't seem to locate them on the schematics. Can someone please help to identify the parts as well as give me some hints on how to put these back where they belong. I figured at this point, I'd just try to paint it as is. I'd really like to change the two rubber gaskets over the main shaft, but don't know how to do so at this point. Here is a picture of the pieces. They are not the same.... maybe a left and right???
