I moved my Ender 6 extruder motor up from the side of the frame to the inside back at the top to shorten the Bowden tube and reduce stringing. It worked reasonably well for a no-cost mod, but now the filament has to curve around the top edge of the frame to get to the extruder motor. I remixed the extruder guide from @vampyrex13 to point in the direction of the extruder to help guide it up and over the corner. I then threaded a piece of spare Bowden tube through the holder to provide an even longer guide to getting around the 90º bend. It worked perfectly.

If you have not already, move the extruder. It doesn't cost anything and is a zero impact change. The worst you will have to do is shorten the Bowden tube from the extruder to the hot end andthat is a good thing! Other than that, there are no irreversible changes to the equipment.
