Replacing The Front Vent Assembly / Grille (Jenn Air JMV8208BCS)

I removed the front vent assembly, and disassembled it for cleaning. As I am a noob, I neglected to take a picture of it. Consequently, I'm not sure which parts go where. I've gotten to the point of replacing the grill hinges, but I'm not sure how to proceed. If I could only get a good picture of how it is supposed to look (or at least something similar), I could then figure this out. Any ideas on how to proceed?

Hi @ripthejacker

Go to p.23 of the owner manual to see how it's done.

Here's a link to the parts list that may help.

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly, Jayeff. Sadly, I believe I haven't explained things fully. I completely disassembled the grill into it's constituent parts, so as to clean it thoroughly. As a consequence of that disassembly, parts fell out of their places, and I neglected to take a picture of the grill assembly before I took it apart. In order to get to where I am, I have already gone well beyond the illustration on page 23. Thanks, though; I appreciate the effort. I was trying to find detailed picture of the grill, its cover and their constituent parts.

Ah, you think as I do! I actually tried this before. I've gotten the grill hinges in place and have secured them with the springs, but there's this largish piece that isn't shown in the diagram that I have to figure out still.
