I put the metal slider in the locked postion and drilled a hole in them just before the plastic piece. Then got some small luggage locks from Home Depot.
The sliders will only move about 1/16 if an inch with the locks in place.
That's exactly what I need! Thanks.

Yes, it can be folded down (see photo). There are some spring detents that hold it up. I've got pretty long arms and can reach around and put it up or down while driving.

For around town, I keep it down. On a long highway, I pull it up. And I sure like the way it keeps stuff from getting sucked out.
