I hate the design of the back cover as you had to remove the entire back cover and thread the wires through the small hole to do parts swap. I removed one side of the back cover so that cables for hotend fan and extruder motor can be swapped without having to remove the entire back cover. I also added reinforcement and fillet for the remaining side. Add selective 100% infill for that area if you're worried about structural integrity.

For PINDA and cooling fan, you still have to remove the back cover, but no longer need to thread the wires through the small hole.

Does not affect cable management as they are held in place by the cable holder piece.
