Default AC vent actuator replacement guide or video?

Hello. I've identified that the clicking noise from the glovebox of my car is due to a broken actuator part. What I haven't found is an instructional video to guide myself.

Anyone knows if there is one or probably a detailed guide on how to replace this part?:

Thanks.

The part is available here:

Its usually on the side of the climate control air box, held on by three screws. I'd scoot the seats back, pull the glovebox out, and any other covers and find it. I don't see a diagram or exploded view of the location. Usually takes a 5.5 mm socket.

Yeah, I finally took the time and a LED lamp to see the broken plastic ring in action, jumping in place instead of moving the vent in one step. I'll take a good look at it before moving anything. I don't want to end up removing huge chunks of the dash (doubtful, I know). Hopefully I won't have any drama and it'll be a breeze.

Thanks!
