Retrofitting an IPV3 door with magnets

[mudram99]

Has anyone looked into this being feasible? It would sure make this thing much more convenient.

I have seen that lots of people do it. It looks really easy but voids your warranty.

Any idea on where they are getting to stronger magnets for this?

do a little research on rare earth magnets. Then you can find some cheap on amazon. Glue them into the door and the mod for a better fit. I looked for threaded magnets, but couldn't find any, maybe you'll have better luck. I got all the stuff to do it to my dna 30w, but haven't gotten around to it... but the point may be moot because now I'm Reo all the way...

Seek and you shall find! That is exactly what i was hoping for, a point in the right direction of a professional looking outcome. Mags ordered! Looks like I might have an extra or 96 if anyone might be interested I would be glad to share.
