Gingerly pulled the element to the front and as the element stopped slightly turned the element to let the prints come out. That part was challenging to get the angle right so not to damage the wires.

It was easy to drop the screws as they fell never to be seen again. After they were removed the top was easily removed. Reinstalling the back two screws was the most difficult of the entire procedure. I replaced the #2 square head bits with the same size hex head screws. Using a nut driver made the whole process much easier. By the way, the distance between the holes in the rear and the replacement top is 1/8" difference that made lining up the holes a frustrating experience. I ended up using a rattail file to hog out the opening to enlarge the holes. That made the lineup much much more easy.

I didn't. Don't know how to get to light bulb to change it for this specific model
