There's slight protrusion on the underside of the lid where the magnet is located. Placing a magnet of sufficient strength in the correct spot (to match the lid) on the edge of the top deck (approximately the circled area) will trigger the reed switch.

You'll need a substitute for the tab on the lid. I cut an old credit card to approximate the tab. The latch is a hook down inside the top. The tab presses down on the "foot" of the hook, which rotates the hook forward into the tab to latch/lock the lid. A slim knife or spoon handle aimed properly from the side may also work.
