Grate Feet fell off early
Used Silicone Rubber to "glue" them. It's heat resistant unlike super glue which is why 8 of them fell off. I only found 6 of them and had to order replacements.

burned oven bulb
The hardest part was taking out original light bulb because screws on shield where hard to unscrew after all this years . The old bulb vent out leaving neck in socket. It took narrow electrical pliers to get neck out .The generic appliance bulb did not fit and had aluminum neck ,not recommended for brass sockets in ovens.Putting new light bulb in was not the problem.
