This is a remake of DrLex's and Jangles1981's hood insert but with a locking mechanism. The rack/gear mechanism is based on the "Mechanical Quick Grab/Release Phone Stand" by Arron_mollet22.
I designed this in Fusion 360. Here is a basic animation https://youtu.be/ie4_3xXwroc
Put the hood on the printer and then install the insert from the back with the cams facing to the inside/front of the printer. Hold the insert by the top of the rack (the chevron looking part). Position the insert in in the hood's cutout and lower the rack to lock it in place. The rack and spur gear will not be visible from the front of the printer.
