The plexi would still probably shatter underneath.
Anyway, I 'm guessing the afterburner has the same setup as a cobalt flux, it'll have a copper pcb on the base panel and foil that connects the tracks when the panel is pressed. Or at least, that's what pads generally have, i've noticed.
In any case, that'll mean you'll need to get a sheet of plexi, cut it to size, stick either heavy duty aluminium tape or sheet metal to the bottom of it and stick it in the pad. Simple. If it's got any wires running to the top panel, you'll be able to simply tape or solder that on anyway.
Post pics if you want.
