I recently dropped a cabinet knob on our glass cooktop...it hit the edge perfectly and made the smallest chip. Over the last few weeks it has cracked further making it evident we need to replace it. Called a repair service and they wanted $480 to replace it. Looks like you guys have it for a lot less. How do we replace it ourselves.

We do not have a manual to go with this cooktop. The previous owners did not leave it. My husband is pretty handy.

Thanks for any tips.

The whole cooktop would usually need to be removed from the countertop. The part itself is likely just screwed to the base.

You can find owner's manual resources in the 'Home Service' section of my web site linked below although it will not help you in servicing your appliance.
