Interesting thread. 

My LongEZ has a simple scissor type with over-center locking bar to keep the canopy
open. In the LEZ case the latch only moves 90 were in ours it needs to go
180 but it should not be too hard to modify.

Simple and works well. The canopy doesn't slam down on your head as it happens
on my EU once in awhile (I actually taxy with the door partially closed held open
with a small foam block).

The best and simplest solution ever for this type of hatch can be found on the
rear window of the Hillman Imp produced by Rootes Group Scotland 1961-1976; had
a few for 25 years and never had a failure.

Hi Group
Nev's solution with passive pins and CF reinforcement works great. I made cardboard
mock up and was able to get geometry spot on. Had packaging tape on fuse
and used JB KWIK Weld to temporarily hold in exact position. Then once  bonded
in perfect position and all is working great we then drilled fuse for screws.
If alignment is not spot on friction is high and it doesn't work. 
It's hard to get your head around the geometry, but once you do, it works great.
We did install over a decade ago and  all is well. The pin and striker are made
out of SS.
My build partner Wayne was not convinced with my cardboard mock up. He called it
a muck up! It took him till after completion of pins and striker install and
actual fooling with to be convinced.
Ron P.
