Bastarding NEFF slide and hide oven door

My old oven door was easy to clean. Lift the plastic casing, separate the glass panels, wipe and click shut

NEFF slide and hide is a fucking pig of a job involving removing the entire door, and before even managing to get that far, I have jammed the door so it won't close and won't come off.

I've watched forty-million YouTube tutorials and the problem is that I cannot see a hinge lock that I can just 'flick up' with a screwdriver, so I have been scrabbling about blind and think I have managed to unlock one but not the other. No idea which side and no idea how i've done it or how to click back or open the other side. The turny bolts that you then turn with a penny I can see, and I could do, but I can't get to that stage because the door is now jammed half open.

Does anyone have this door that can offer any suggestions? I've tried shining a torch through the side gap but I can't see anything that looks like the shiny, perfect cog on all the lying bastard YouTube videos.

Oh wow - it's an actual thing!

Another flaw though really if you have to buy a thing to get the bulb out.
