It you think you can do this yourself you will mostly have to install the connector on wires in new box they are made for several types installations. Don’t worry about which wire goes where, it’s loop system and just need to connect loop. Don’t worry about the crack in front of heat shield if you’re cracked, looks like most crack there. Like I said hardest part bending down and laying on floor. I unplugged the 110V cord and pulled unit out get access to Back cause I don’t like working with powered.

Happy to report we did it ourselves today (ordered the $20 part on Amazon)! For us the worst part was the tube piece......the nut holding the tube was frozen and we tried everything to loosen it. Finally, my husband somehow sawed it out, yikes. Had it not been for that, not a bad project to do.
