Could use some help making a lid for my project box

I'm working on a 3D printable case for a circuit board & switch. I've got the bottom part of the case figured out, now I'm trying to make a lid for it. I'm thinking a flat piece that matches the size of the box, then extrude down into the box 1-2mm for a press-tight fit. I'm open to other ideas. I want something simple. I don't anticipate having to open the box very often after initial setup, so the lid does not need to be complicated, a simple press fit will be fine I think.

I've been working on it but not getting anywhere. The inside & outside of the box has complicated curves (sketch fillets) and I'm having trouble drawing a box such that it will end up with a matching fit. Can someone help me out a little? I'd appreciate it, thanks.
