Default Heavy Duty hatch struts

My 318ti has an acoustic shelf fitted which being heavier than normal has taken it's toll on the hatch struts. On cold mornings the hatch tends to close by itself and can result in a nasty blow to the head !

Has anyone had the same problem and fitted struts off another car which are designed for heavier tailgates?

Cheers Duncan
