Glove box damper... where does it connect?

[kmtodd4]

Hi everyone,

Only been driving my new Yaris a couple of weeks. I have the bluetooth hooked up but when my GF is in the car she used the AUX because I like to have my hands-free "free" in case someone calls and I want to answer without touching my phone. This means my glove box is opened and closed almost every day.

Today my "damper" disconnected from inside my glove box... not from the end that attaches to the glove box door, but where it affixes to inside the dash. I see that the end that attaches to the door is disconnected when you have to remove the glove box in most cases.

I must be crazy because I cannot figure out how to reconnect this damper. It seems like even when it's closed it is too long to connect to the notch I see inside the dash.

Has anyone else had issues with the damper and could tell me where each end is supposed to connect? Should I just leave it disconnected? I feel incredibly dumb asking because this seems like an easy fix but I am stumped.

Thanks in advance for any help!
