Default Stronger Boot hinges. 244

Has anyone got a solution to stronger boot lifts for a saloon? Now I’ve the group A spoiler on the boot won’t stay up. Rather than use a solid pole or strut all the time is there heavier duty lifts for it? I’ve read the E30 bonnet hinges fit but wondered if anyone else has fitted something else? Thanks.
