Is there one? I have tried bending the upper and lower tabs and even resorted to jamming all sorts of shims between the stove and the panels. I'd like a permanent fix to stop these things from buzzing/rattling. Thanks
 
I used magnets that are glued on to the tile(in my case)with silicone and they hold the side panels on my quad insert just fine.
 
Using textile botton snaps to hold metal panels together is just an overall bad concept on Dane's part....leave them off...

I agree on the snaps, but who the heck is Dane?

I am digging this idea and sort of embarassed I hadn't thought of it. I actually had to resort to magnets on my oven door years ago when the latch busted. :(
