Hi Gnat - Natalie,
Them pier motel scope covers are good, Tho I considered by looking at them the initial 'Pro's & Con's:
One + with it being, they appear to work very well for the Alt-Az fork mount on the wedge, but --->
Two - is, I would check further if using a EQ Mount, reason being that using an EQ mount tends to turn your scope in a vertical position, therefore would hit the Base Plate ? I havent seen one in use, but I'd be pretty confident in saying that an EQ mounted scope would or at least, very likely come into contact with it,,,

Just my thoughts, I know not which mount you have ?
Just my 'Bob's worth :-)
Good Luck ....
