Heating a 44 Gal Pentagon

I just bought a 44 Gal Pentagon for a tokay gecko that I'm getting. The top that comes with the tank is plastic that has two slots with glass for lights and a little flip lid door.



I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to heat this thing. I'm afraid the the heat from the light will melt the plastic.

Have had one to many close calls with lights melting plastic.



I guess I could go out and get some plexglass and make a whole new top for this tank, but I'd really prefer if I could use what came with the tank.
