kindle touch help - magnetic cover?

Odd request time.
I have a really nice cover for my kindle touch but it doesn't have the wake/sleep magnet in it. Does anyone know where i'd need to place the magnet in the cover to have it do this? I have the needed magnet - can someone with a cover with the wake/sleep feature measure out/figure out where the magnet is and let me know please?

The 2011 Kindle Touch didn't have that feature, did it? I'll test mine later, but I don't think it will work.

It does NOT work. This feature was first introduced with the Kindle Paperwhite 1.

I dont know if it does but I've found cases for the kindle touch on amazon that said they have a wake/sleep feature so i figured its worth looking into adding it to my case. If you get any results let me know please.

I tested a couple of my cases and no, this is not a feature of the Kindle Touch. Unfortunately!
