oil filter relocation

[Swifty1638]

I am relocating my oil filter for easier access (downpipe doesn't allow me to take the filter off) but i want to know if it's safe to place the filter up in the driver's fender, like in the area infront of the washer fluid neck, were the ps fluid container used to go? I just wanna make sure it's not only able to work at a level even with the current location, since the oil system is somewhat pressurized. I want to make sure oil will flow to and from the filter if it's in a higher location. Thanks.
