Help me identify my oven!

Well yesterday when my lodger was cooking, the inner glass pane in the grill oven just smashed - glass everywhere!
I'ev spent what feels like hours getting all the little bits out, but I need to work out what the oven is to replace the pane. Its one that just slides in, so can I jusst order it from somewhere (any suggestions?) or will it need a fitter (i hope not)
The oven was here when i moved in, and I cant read the label on the inner door - would the model number be anywhere else accessible on the oven?
Also, I've got the vast majority of the glass out, but is leaving little41584229@N08 bits in the very inaccessible areas likely to cuase futher damage - ie - am i going to have to take it apart! :eek:
Thanks very much!

    The vast majority of building insurance policies cover fiitted ovens (even if you don't have accidental cover). Its woirth calling them as they normally just replace it so you will get a new oven.

    ooh - thank you!
    thats a really good start :)

    My excess is £250 so really not worth getting the insurance involved i'd have thought...

    The oven is actually made by Stoves, so try them for spares. Parts are also the same for some Bosch ovens (but the same part usually costs double!!).

    Probably £40-£60 for the inner door glass.

    Great - Ill call stoves (rather than bosch!) tmw and see what they say. Their website is not very useful to identify the model...
    Any thoughts on further damage by leaving little bits of glass in? Its mostly stuck in a slim void between the two ovens, and impossible to get to without taking the thing apart - maybe 15-20 little chunks of glass left?

    or try e spares

    this happened to a friend of mine (think theirs was a stoves, actually,) and they ended up getting a complete new door, I beleive.

    I've hoovered out as much as i can... and been swiping it out with a screwdriver and knife! The gap is really very slim, maybe 5mm high, and 20 wide, in a grill along the width of the oven, maybe 10 of them?

    Its amazing how much glass it creates!
