1. Pull the bottom tray out and set it aside.
2. Remove the screws holding the current tray rails in. I found it important to remove the screws with a socket, not a screwdriver. They were rusty and seized very well. A Phillips screwdriver would have likely stripped the screw heads without removing them.
3. Pull the old rails off and clean up the bottom of the grill is you want.
4. Put the new rails on and tighten the holding screws. I put a dab of grease on the screws to help prevent them from rusting and seizing
Ignitor:
Just follow the instructions that come with the ignitor. They're straightforward and easy to follow.
