Default c5 front console

has anyone come up with a fix for the gap on the passenger side of the front console after a new radio install. i just had an alpine cd117 installed and theres a gap on the pass. side mostly at the top right side and theres no way to toyally oush it in. if i remember someone came up with an idea on how to seal it but i cant remember what they used some rolled leather might work. thanx brad
