Replace Handle On Kitchenaid Khms2050sss0 Microwave Hood Combo.

I need to install a replacement door handle on a Kitchenaid KHMS2050SSS0 microwave hood combo.  All the handle replacement msgs and videos refer to doors without electronic display and controls on the door.  it appears on this door that 6 side screws need to be removed, but that would require removing the door to reach the hinge side screws.  Is this really necessary? if anyone has replaced the door handle on one of these models, I sure would appreciate some tips on how to reach the screws in the door that attach the handle.   Thanks!
