Plastic vent on microwave was cracked and would no longer stay on.
Removed the broken parts and screws and placed the new vent on and tightened screws. I am an 76 year old woman, so if I could do this, then anyone can! Surprisingly easy to install.

Grill was cracked (mounting tabs) some time ago by unknown source. Suggest during in warranty problem on fire hazard. Vent grill was falling off.
Unscrewed the remaining (2) screws that held the vent in place, placed the new grill in the tab loctators, and screwed it into place. Done...in less than 10 minutes. It took me 15 minutes to find my wife to show her what a nice job I did.

microwave vent grill
I have been doing repair on things on my own for years, I am a retired prevenative maintenace supervisor.
While cleaning the microwave vent grill from being old it fell apart, so I ordered the part using the internet to find the a company that has the same part, the part didnt take long before I recieved it. It didnt take five minutes to install it, and it saved me cash in the pocket from someone else to do the work. wallen
