[Malte M. <Mal...@cs...>]

You are looking for

matplotlib.axes.Subplot.set_position

set_position(self, pos) method of matplotlib.axes.Subplot instance
    Set the axes position with pos = [left, bottom, width, height]
    in relative 0,1 coords

    ACCEPTS: len(4) sequence of floats

axes_top.set_position([left, bottom, width, height])

etc.
