I broke the trim shelf trying to take it out to clean
I went online and found the part and ordered it. Once the new part was ordered I disposed of the old part - BIG MISTAKE! When I received the new part I discovered that there were six or more little parts in the one big part. I then had to order all of the little parts. Once they were all there, it was like putting together a puzzle to put it all back together. The diagram on your order form helped immeasurably!
Thanks!
Lessons Learned:
1. Just exactly how dirty does the refrigerator need to be before you clean it?
2. NEVER throw one part away until the replacement is in your hands

Crisper Frame broke at midspan in rear; glass shelf left taking all the load
Replacement is pretty simple using the video provided on PartSelect--might just need a small screwdriver to get the front metal brace exchanged (also in video). Real issue is the frame design; it's bad.
There is no support provided for the rear edge of the shelf at midspan, which causes the frame/center rail to bow and fatigue back there, eventually breaking with constant use of the crisper drawers coupled with shelf load. To remedy this, after replacement I cut a 6 inch length of 1"x1" post, painted it gloss white, and wedged it underneath the new frame right where the center rail attaches in the back (glass shelf below provides the wedge base). There is no interference with the drawers if the wedge is against the back wall, and you really can't see it. Should work to keep the stress off the plastic. Other ways are obviously possible; this is what I had around the house.
