Ok hello all probably in wrong section sorry, and many will tell me to get a roof rack as an option, but does anyone have any tricks to keep the upper boot lid secure and open to fit oversized items hanging out over the opened lower tailgate?if you can picture this?

My old trick of opening upper tailgate then using the key on the latch to gently nudge it up and shut (so have a loop now where i can thread through rope to tie down it down to the 2 anchor point in the boot ain't gonna cut it anymore....)
