Extending the probe is not the issue. Area there you need to raise the stepper is the issue. I have a plan B model of that- But the inner lid where the filament goes would have to come out.
As for opening the lid with the bowden setup, I plan on leaving enough tubing to to still have the lid closed.
Where the stepper is where the unit will go. Still printing it so I don't have it as an example.
