Similar to Dan’s but I took an arm off another lid stay, modified it to work as a keeper to lock the installed stay in place when up & riveted this to the upper arm of the installed stay. Simple, works great and maybe cost me 10 bucks.

I got my coil-spring support from a marine/boat supply site. They are often used to support built-in cooler lids.
Less than $10.
