I have both replacement hinges (from Appliance Pro's) but it looks like I need to both remove side sheets. However, several screws for the side sheets are below the top burner surface and the top burner surface has fixed burners which appear to be hard-piped down to front controls. Kind of a Catch-22 and I don't want to bend something critical. What are the disassembly steps to get access to replace oven door hinges?

Kind of a Catch-22 and I don't want to bend something critical. What are the disassembly steps to get access to replace oven door hinges? I figured it out myself (after messing with it for an hour). I'm posting this Reply, in case it might help someone else in the future. I needed to remove all 4 burner modules (1/8 turn ccw), remove wires from each burner, then remove 4 smaller screws holding burner frame (below) from the cooktop surface. Then, the cooktop surface lifts off. Side-sheets can then be removed to get access to hinges.
