If you're referring to the 2 springs on the LATCH RELEASE CONTROL ASSEMBLY, they are long-since GM-discontinued but available in reproduction.

If you're talking about the springs that are integral to the rear bow pin locks or deck lid locks, those were never available in SERVICE from GM and, as far as I know, are not available in reproduction. To replace these you would need to find a spring assortment in a hardware store and match them up.
