This is a top hat for a Voron Trident 300 that I'm calling an Ascot because of the jaunty angle ;-) .  This gives extra height for an umbilical setup in the rear yet allows a complete unobstructed view into the camber while standing in front of the printer. Also a modded BTT cable bridge and rear CAN cable clamps for the rear are included. I've used a 0.5 mm rod for the cable support but I may change it to a 0.64mm rod. Do test fit the panels for fit by bonding them with a drop or two of CA glue.  Mine fit fine.  The stock acrylic lid can be reused. Print a mirror of the side panels for the other side and corner clips. The sides and rear panels all bond together. I used thick CA with accelerator for a fast job. The standard rolled 2mmx5mm foam tape can be used between the frame and the panels and new panels and the top plexi pane. If I remember, I had to shave off/heat-and-push a few mm of the bottom outside corners of the rear panels where the groove shape extends over the vertical end extrusions. I just used an assortment of fasteners for attachment to the frame. The forward screw hole on the side front triangular panels do not use t-nuts. All other screws to the 2020 use t or spring nuts. The 1 screw in the front edge L&R corners needs to be forced to a vertical to meet the spring nuts in the extrusion. I may sometime revise the front corner clips. The entire Ascot does assemble and seal well though. Don't over-tighten the screws so much that the plexi deforms into the foam tape to the point of cracking. Be careful.

I printed the panel sides very light with 2 top and bottom layers, 3 wall loops and 15% infill. I printed the first copy as a proof-of-concept (and I'm using it), you may want to increase the amount of filament used. The clamping clips were printed @100% infill. With an added BentoBox  https://www.printables.com/model/1279472-bentobox-platform-for-inverted-wiring-cabinet-in-v hepa/charcol filter along with the Siboor rear carbon filter there are zero odours while printing with my oldest stinkiest ABS. The chamber is well sealed.
