Grill vent broke off
It really just snaps into place- nothing to it.
The only small problem is, it's a different color than the original. The original was gray and the new one is black but it still looks fine.

Microwave turns on but did not heat
Loosened but did not remove screws that held up microwave over range,removed grill on top by loosening screws that held grill in place.removed small mesh grill on right side of microwave, this gave me access to capacitor ,diode is connected from one lead of capacitor to a metal plate ground,Disccarged capacitor to ground by shorting terminals to ground using a thick insulated screwdriver.Since the diode was screwed to the top of the metal plate I cut it out with a pair of side cutters .I then connected the new diode to the capacitor with my long nose pliers and groonded the other end to a more accessible part of the metal grounding plate.I then replaced all parts in reverse order.Works like a charm.

Replacement of hood light bulbs
Unplug the microwave. Then remove the six screws that hold the lower panel which has the light bulb cover and a couple of vent filters. The light bulb sockets are on a fixture that is connected by a quick connect electrical connector. Disconnect that and the whole panel is free to access the bulbs. My bulbs were very fragile and trying to twist them out resulted in the glass twisitng loose with the base still in the sockets. I needed to use a needle nose pliers to remove the bases and then I replaced the bulbs and put every thing back together

Retaining clips on original grill were broken
With new replacement grill, a separate clip was supplied in the box that had to be screwed in to the top portion. This clip did not fit since the hole for the screw was on the right side and not the left, so I just snapped the grill in place with the existing clips.
There must be another clip that fits this unit but perhaps the person packing the box grabbed the wrong clip and taped it in with the shipped box.
