add filtering to the field based on the criteria you want to restrict the list by perhaps? That would be the simplest way if there's nothing complex about what you wish to filter on.
Otherwise you're looking at hiding the proper field and adding a customer one dynamically and putting in place a script to populate the "real" field since you cannot add / remove form a list that's defined via the UI. You'd probably have more flexibility if your field was populated with a record rather than a list. You may want to consider that, it really depends on your use case.
