Anyone have a way to keep a gas strut door open in a breeze?

Searched, but didn't see this question posted. I was wondering if any of you fine folks have an ingenious way to keep the wind from closing a gas strut door. On our Raptor, the doors open 90 degrees. Is there a clip or something to help the door stay open in a light breeze?

. Ha! A universal fix like duct tape. But hoping for something strut related though.

Make a piece of pipe that fits over the shaft on the shock so that it will not close. It is the same thing they have on bobcats to keep cylinder from coming down while u are working on the unit. Good luck.
