I have the same problem, and toyed with the idea of replacing them.
I decided it's cheaper and easier just to put my hand up and set the top down gently.

Thanks for the link! The slamming has caused part # 25 here:

...... the plastic piece at the front of the top to split around one securing screw and the section that the motor cover snaps into has broken completely. I glued the broken piece back together last night and it's holding. I too am stopping the close procedure near the end and then easing it down to avoid any more damage. That above part is now $200 at ECS

I also just had my passenger airbag occupancy sensor go out...... irritating
