you could change the rubber exhaust mounts, powerflex do some and you can pick up a set of halfords own brand mounts quite cheap, they are stiffer and seem a bit shorter than the standard vaux ones.

yeah it should do, as you said the aftermarket backbox is heavier so hangs low on the std vaux rubbers so stiffer ones should do the trick.

or as Dan_c4rsa said, use zip ties on the vaux rubbers if you just want to hold it up higher.
