Can't tell if next to last letter is Q or G). One forum comment suggests you have to take panels off of door while another suggested heating with hair dryer to remove old one and peel and stick new one. WHICH METHOD IS CORRECT? Anyone have a link to "how to" in the appropriate service manual or can someone just describe the steps? Thanks in advance for help.

You will see the tape around the circumference so it looks like it is a peel and stick.

From the look of yours you should not have to remove the panel from the door. The hair dryer is just to loosen up the old glue so that the old one peels off fairly easily and does not leave a lot of glue on the machine's panel.
