I'm in the process of completely cleaning up the engine area:

Remove back pad
Remove tabs for back pad
Remove glue from firewall
Repair hell hole

I plan to purchase Craig's rear trunk shox kit and was wondering if I should go through the process of removing the torsion bar mounting bolts and bracket. It looks like the bolts would be fairly easy to cut off and cover with bondo, but the bracket looks like it could be difficult to get to.

Anyone with an opinion, either way?
