Chris, in the instructions it says the captive screws holding the panel in place have to be tight because they form part of the electrical circuit. Therefore the panel must be metal. The only part of the circuit would be grounding for the two condensers that are attached to the back side of the panel.
Thanks for deciphering that part of the instructions.
Those lid catches have me scratching my head. They don't look to be spring loaded. Maybe that's why the bottom one in the picture isn't latched. Gravity took over. The catches must be made of spring steel to hold some pressure to not fall open.
