in response to lint screen housing issue for White Westinghouse Spacemates. I picked up the part at Servall in Centerline, Michigan. It came in a huge box which was intimidating. After removing about 20 screws and taking off the front face of the dryer, I was able to remove the old one and install it.

I had the same problem with the broken housing for my White Westinghouse Spacemates lint screen. Reading this post was really helpful in fixing my unit.

I picked up the part at Servall in Centerline, Michigan. It came in a huge box (which was intimidating) The visible part when you open the dryer door is only about 5 inches tall. What you will see when you take off the front of the dryer is that it fits over another opening which actually doubles it's height.

After removing about 20 screws and taking off the front face of the dryer, I was able to remove the old one and install it without any instructions. It's really easy to do once you take off the front.
