Product review (5 stars): Heating element AND thermostats
This is the heating element AND thermostats - it's less expensive here than any other place we researched.

Just wanted to give clarification since the listing and other reviews I read through don't specify this.

You will want a helper for this since there's not really away to screw the new one back in with out help. Someone will need to be holding it in place on the inside while another screws it in (with an impact drill if possible) from the rear.

Otherwise very easy to install. It heats up nicely and fit with my parents model #CER3600AS1 dryer that's about 10-12 years old. This product saved my parents the cost of a new dryer.

It does NOT (at least not ours) come with new screws, so do not throw away your old ones. Hang on to any and all screws you pull out. Also consider keeping the thermostats from your old unit in case the new go out. I do not have any idea what the white material stapled to the unit is, but it doesn't touch anything once installed so we left it on there.
