Do you mean to stop it closing by itself? If so, there are springs in the door that keep it open. These break over time. Someone on the forum sells replacement ones but the doors need to be removed to fit them. I can't remember whom it is, but hopefully someone will pick up on your post. If not try nascohunter, he either sells them or at least knows who does.

Rear doors need the flat bar restraint that goes into the pillar  springs are on the front doors.

you will see the steel cover on the pillar.
