Adding sound deadening, say +1-2 kg, makes the problem even worse, as the OEM force is 580 nm and won't hold the gate open in cold weather.
Even after I added stronger ones, it still won't budge. I looked through the carparts portal and found it from a Passat; I knew force, length, and stroke. They were also 600 miles away. In all likelihood, they match the description on the link that Leafy provided.
