You just stick the magnetic backing to the existing glass plate for flatness and rigidity. You might have to bump the heated temp 1 or 2 degrees to compensate for the additional thickness, and you may lose a couple of mm/s of print speed at the high end due to the additional weight. That said, it is a very cheap and easy to execute option.

That’s what they are saying. Buy a PEI plate with a magnetic backing, remove the rest of the abs from your glass build plate and stick the magnetic pad on it. Then the pei goes on top.
I did this as an upgrade to my own printer.
- Comment on Safe to run a box fan face down? 1 month ago:
The bearings are much sturdier as the fan is bolted to the motor, and the motor is a generic one meant to be used in any orientation. I personally bought [this](iLIVING 20" Wall Mounted Shutter… www.amazon.com/dp/B0BVY8VCNZ) one for my house to cool it in the summer and at half power, every open window in the house has a stiff breeze.

Box fan bearings are not typically designed to run in that orientation. It will probably run for a while before failing prematurely. Might make it a couple months or just a few weeks.
This is a much more robust fan and they come in various sizes to better fit your opening. They move a lot more air, and many styles come with a thermostat and speed controller. Sorry for the Amazon link, this is just the general style: a.co/d/bLeBCeD
