Modifying existing firefox extension doesn't work because of signatures

I've got the extension Metamask which pops up notification and asks me to click the button Unlock to access a website. I'm trying to automate it by adding a javascript code to click on the button automatically, but when I made the changes to .xpi file and saved it, the extension simply disappeared probably because the signature now couldn't verify the extension. The error it shows is MetaMask could not be verified for use in Firefox and has been disabled. The old solution like toggling xpinstall.signatures.required to false no more works after Firefox 44.

Can anyone suggest how to achieve the same?

You can not use unsigned extension on release version of Firefox, but you can on Nightly or Developer edition of the Firefox.

Download and test future releases of Firefox for desktop, Android and iOS.
