FJ Aluminum Console Cover, make it flip back?

I just got one of the FJ Aluminum Console covers, they aren't THAT good they don't sit flush or anything, but they do cover up my Garmin, which is good. But instead of having to lift it out, is it possible to rig it so that it can FLIP backwards and stay connected? I'm not talking about in a ghetto way like with tap or something, but in a somewhat clean way? I just hate having to toss it in the back whenever my buddies get in and have to put there drinks there.

If he did, can you point me to it? It has enough space to flip back the armrests look closer than they really are in the picture *goes to make sure*

The tuffy one sits higher and the whole unit inserts into console you have now. I do believe that you can only use 1 armrest with the tuffy one. Look at their website.

Not sure what you meant by look closer on the arm rest. My point was that you cannot make the eBay cover flip back as it will hit the armrests.

I was thinking that the picture made it look as if the armrests were closer due to the angle I went and checked (I ended up waxing my car as well so that's why I'm late back) and yeah, the armrests are in the way, oh well :-\, the Tuffy's are a bit much...I don't really want something like that lol
