We also have the Baja version, but I removed the entire plasti-core cover sheeting because of rodents of all description; squirrels, chipmunks, and pack-rats. The factory installation of the plasti-core sheet was worse than useless, holes and sloppy cut-outs, and lack of care in the whole install allowed rodents into the underbelly. After removing the sheeting I had to also repair additional cut-outs and poke-throughs that were allowing rodent to access into the cabinet containing the AC/DC wiring and the on board water tank. The wiring to all the tank sensors was chewed into a mass of stranded wire that had to be replaced. Also the brake light wiring was chewed to bits. There was plenty of dry grass, leaves, and other nest making materials. After finding all the bad wiring, I had to sort out all the damage and re-wire the tail lights and the black and gray tank wiring. The plasti-core sheeting as installed by the factory provided the perfect home for the rodents, like having their own Hanta hotel. I have previously worked in mobile home construction so I was able to successfully make all the necessary repairs even though the 145rb baja was under warranty. Good Luck!!!
