Magnetic PC case door

This is not a vanity modification - I've got this case for free but it was missing side door. In general I don't mind, but I've finally created replacement side door just to reduce dust collecting inside.
 I bought these 10 neodymium magnets (5x5x2mm) for under $1.

 This semi-sturdy, semi-transparent plastic sheet was cut out from light scattering panel from broken LCD TV - basically electronic waste. It was easy to shape by cutting lines with sharp knive and snapping it.
 Magnets are held with transparent two-component adhesive.
 6 magnets were quite enough to hold it, but as this plastic is little flimsy I've added two extra in the middle of longest edges.
