Holes pre drilled raise it on up tighten bolts and poof you're done!! I did loosen the screws that pull the cabinets together and the bottom screw that holes the cabinet on one side. It didn't seem like it needed it the way it slipped in but maybe it slipped in because I did it. Only takes a minute. Use a minute here save an hour there. Go do it! Times a wastin!!

Really easy for a 75-year old female; just spent more time reading the online manual than actually installing the light bulbs to find out where to access the light bulbs.

We needed a phillips head screw driver to remove the single screw holding the light bulb cover in place.
Removing the old bulbs was a little work, because they had come loose from the sockets. We unplugged the microwave, so we could grip the sockets with a tool. I think my husband used a needle nose plier for this.
The new bul ... Read more bs screwed in easily, and then we refastened the light bulb cover with the phillips head screw driver.

Two Mounting plates # PS12074431 were sent to me and both do not fit.
Model number MMV1175JZ-0
Serial number TRX-17. 24546
Manufactured April 2020
Contacted Maytag and even sent pictures to show the problem with alignment of the mounting plate not fit in the back of the microwave.
