I can`t see the point in stripping the rear to then fill it again with MDF, carpets & speakers, especially if you`ve got a cage, I`d also remove the harnesses from the strut brace & fix them to the floor instead

It shouldn`t be & isn`t stripped bare just to look good, it`s done to save weight

That would defeat the point in stripping it though, those people that do have it bare don`t care if it looks good or not
