Passenger side HVAC actuator rattle ?

Having bunch of problems with my 2017 2SS.

One of them is rattle coming from passenger side when attempting to change temperature. It looks like actuator is skipping in gears. Of corse, i cant change from HOT to COLD.
Is there any diagram or DIY how to get it out or unplug it?
I pulled out panel under the glove box compartment but couldn’t see actuator.

Does anyone know, where is locating passenger side temperature actuator?

Did anyone replaced it without removing dash and windshield ?

There’s not much online about it.

Here’s some pictures... is it the one i marked red?

Update:

So, today i decided to figure out my passenger side heat actuator problem.

I started with pulling carpet away from foot rest area, than removing 3 - 7mm screws from plate under neath the glove box compartment. Once that was dome, i removed all modules which were attached to the plate so i could remove it from the vehicle. Than, i removed glove box it self.
That allowed me to see broken actuator.

Actuator was making clicking noise every time it went to HOT or COLD end position.

So... I decided to remove it somehow...
First, i took cabin filter out. I was thinking, i could gain access to one of two screws that holds actuator in position.
No luck...
First, front screw went out very easy, but one on top back side was a big problem...
there was no way for me to lose that screw with limited tools i had...
So i decided to brake it of somehow...
After few minutes and few magical words (@!#?!!$&@) i was able to brake it lose.
Than, using multitool, i cut off little piece of plastic from behind the glove box and also metal reinforcement. That helped me to take it out so easily.
Now, i need to buy exact part (Actuator) and pray so i can put it back in somehow

Here is few pictures i took for you guys.
