Do you have sufficient clearance with the doghouse and the seat backs to make this usable? I'm not sure I do in mine.
Note that (on the Fords at least) the cupholder/bin unit detaches quite easily from the doghouse proper via a clip at the bottom. With a little cleverness, it seems to me it should be possible to construct a center mount for the bed unit that attaches to the doghouse via the knobs and so forth that the cubby unit attaches with and simultaneously gain a bit of additional depth. The easiest way might be to get an old cubby unit from a junkyard and cut it down to just the mounting bits. Obviously the weight on the doghouse cover should not be excessive.
