You might be able to do it with some new braces on the sides. They stop it from going up further. If you got longer ones you could probablu do this. You might have trouble though if they are to long. They may not fit in there correctly so it might not close properly.

what's wrong with sliding it back? louder, yes, but if you're that worried about your O2 flow, maybe it's worth it...??
