Sidebar background transparency

This particular site has an entire background image. I would like to have the background of my sidebar be white with 40% opacity, but when I do the following under ATO > Style & Configure Sidebars > RIGHT sidebar style:

HTML Code:

border-left: 2px solid #c7cbce;
padding: 20px 0 20px 0;
margin:10px 0 10px 0;
background:#FFFFFF;
opacity:0.4;
filter:alpha(opacity=40); /* For IE8 and earlier */

It makes everything in the sidebar transparent. Seeing that, I tried adding the following under ATO > Style Widgets > Widget Container

HTML Code:

opacity:1 !important;
filter:alpha(opacity=100); /* For IE8 and earlier */

This did nothing.

Do I just need to poke around in the code to find the right selector or am I missing something else? Any help is always greatly appreciated! Thanks!
