You can get rare earth magnets from most good hardware stores, woodworking stores, or online. I know for a fact that www.leevalley.com has them.

 Magnets do not work with stainless steel
I bought 3M dual lock Hi Strength Hi temp superlock fasteners Very strong only needed 4 small squares.(much stronger than the clear stuff.
I will put plate on when wife comes home and then upstate I go.
I dont think I will need it this time around,but you never know.
I will list pics of install when I get back.
Removing front plate is a must,I snaped it off in Georgia backing off a hill.
