Console Pocket Alteration

Hello!
I'd like to store cds in these pockets on either side of the console.
Does anyone know if one or both can be extended without damage to whatever lies behind them?
Thank you.

Gracias Xen555!
That is a good idea.

From the ad:

"Easy to install, can do by yourself.
We send installation manual with item.
PS : It design for "Right Hand Drive" Please check with your local dealer before bidding."

My car is left hand drive. I wonder if it would still work.

Also, the bottom edges are not as high in my vehicle as those pictured in the ad.

Anyway it gives me an alternative and opens up my thinking.

I don't think it will work on a USDM Yaris, unless it includes quite a few pieces of trim (the vertical pieces that go along the HVAC controls and the radio, and the pieces between the center and the left and right glove boxes). Also, even if it included the two verticals, the ones shown in the picture are for the radio that is like the Sedan one, where some of the controls are on those vertical pieces...

sold one set of these in the first GB I did, they'll fit fine, they basically clip behind the edge of the pocket, pretty clever system

But for serious CD storage your best bet is an armrest/center console thing

OK - I see it now. The original low-lip pocket stays and this thing snaps on over the top of it...

Thank you mikenacarato and CT Scott for eliciting eTiMaGo's understandable clarification.
Perhaps for me it's a lesson in less.
