Where does this part fit on a Glock.....no Glock I have seen has anything that looks like this in it.....or on it......

They call it a trigger spring, but I thought the trigger spring was the spring that hooks on the trigger stop at one end and the trigger bar at the other..
Like these springs...

Above is the stock coil trigger spring installed correctly.

Before installing the New York Trigger Spring, be sure that the connector fits tightly in the Trigger Mechanism Housing. If the Connector does not fit tightly - you will need to replace the Trigger Mechanism Housing to ensure a tight fit for the connector.

That looks like it would place constant upward pressure on the trigger bar....would this not be a reliability concern or cause extra wear to the trigger bar ?

In the above battle between plastic and steel, steel wins. You don't need to worry about the plastic wearing the steel trigger bar. The Glock trigger bars are incredibly strong.

I've tried the NY triggers in Glocks and they don't feel good at all. Maybe if I were allowed to carry, I "might" get one (for peace of mind), otherwise "no way!"

Installation is easier than the normal glock spring. Drop in, done.
 
Having the constant upwards pressure would change the slide removal procedure....

[FONT=verdana, arial, helvetica]To remove the slide would be more difficult now, as it would "hang up".

The increased trigger spring pressure pushing up on the cruciform portion of the trigger bar would make itself raise up, keeping contact with the f/p lug.

Squeezing the trigger while holding the slidelock lever down would allow the slide to come off as it normally would.

No, because you only take the slide off after you've "fired" the pistol, when the trigger-bar is "disconnected" from the connector anyway. Take-down is identical.
 
You might feel some upward pressure on the slide from the trigger-bar, but there's nothing there for it to hook up on if you follow the ordinary take-down procedure; after you "fire" it to begin the take-down, the back edge of the trigger-bar is already behind the striker leg.
