Dunno anything about them.

On the one I was asking questions about the other day, you CAN replace 
burners separately.  It's a 1999 vintage Kenmore made by Maytag.  The 
top is stamped steel;  the glass was installed from the top;  the 
burners bolt into the steel from underneath.  You can punch up model 
629.46799 on your favorite parts site if you're curious.

I'll attach a parts diagram, which hopefully will find its way to John, 
and be filtered out by the list server.
