Glovebox Shock

So while my '09 MCS was at the dealer getting warranty work done I got a 2013 Justa Clubman. And I noticed that the glovebox door opens nice and smooth like it has a shock on it. Mine just 'clunks' open when i push the button to open it. I purchased it last year and its always been like that so just wanted to find out if they made a change during one of those years or if mine is broken?

Thanks!

#1 is the part for the lid itself.

#10 is the little damper that mounts to the side. Just sounds like its not working like it should or broken.

I have the same issue. Do you have any idea how I reach the screw to replace the damper?

Here I was thinking when it said shock, there was going to be some taser device in it or something. I'm kind of disjointed.
