Unlike most of these questions my door clip still works, but its the outer door which has cracked and the glass has slipped down. I can order a new outer door but before I do I want to be sure I can fit it easily! Its a Panasonic NN-A554 inverter slimline combi. Can anyone help please? thanks!

Thanks very much. Just had the same problem and sorted it with your instructions. Two points. First, There is an inner-inner black frame, which is not the one to slot out - it is the outer-inner black frame. Second, use a magnetic screwdriver or place the microwave on its side to work downwards with the screws.

proberly the reason no one answered your question is micro wave overs are extremely dangerous to work on,as they contain very high voltages,if you are a trained engineer,thats fine,but,and it is a big but,users should not attempt to open or repair them,the capacitor inside can store uo to 50.000 volts,
we use a probe to discharge it before we work on them

Well, I'm answering my own question 'cos no-one else did!
You prize the black plastic inner frame out with a round bladed knife. Then you can access the 4 screws holding the outer door on. Unhook the spring on the door catch, then clip the outer door off.
Reassembly is straight forward but fiddly! I taped the screws to the end of the screwdriver to make it easier!
