Default Inboard console holddowns / attachment?

Question for the inboard owners -- how is your console attached?

My console has hinges on the forward edge of the console so it can tilt forward. There are no rear or side attachments and the console is held down by the weight of the console and t-top only. When I am running the console has some movement back and forth and I am worried that it is a safety issue. When I re-cored the center hatch there was also some damage to the fiberglass skin on the deck as a result of the console movement.

I want to secure it and I purchased some T-latches made of rubber / stainless similar to the style found on the hoods of Jeeps. I am not sure if these are going to provide enough lateral stability to keep the console in place when I am running.
