Glass is a very poor insulator, unless you use layered glass, but then you are looking at a significant increase in cost. A small opening cut in the lid and sealed, allowing you to see inside (such as humidity gage, would be all you need, as the temp is shown on the helix thermostat (unless you want a second thermometer inside to ensure the Helix is working or in the case of a power failure and you want to know how much the temps drop.
Awesome incubator, by the way.  I plan on making a similar cooler based incubator this summer, to get ready for cornsnake eggs next year. (still too early for me to breed my ball python, she's not even two years old yet and not up to weight..and well, I have no male yet LOL)
