After reading a thread by Minuteman from the Gearheads website, I have been inspired to begin soundproofing my interior. I am starting in the tub behind the seats. First step was to remove the carpeting by popping out all the clips that hold it in place. They all come off pretty easily although you may have to massage one or two to fully cooperate.
Once all the clips are out, CAREFULLY remove the carpet along with the rubber mat and rock wool insulation. Mazda used a very sticky glue to hold it all together and it's wet to the touch. You do not want this goo going everywhere! Since I will be reusing my carpet, I will be cleaning all that glue off the backside. Once you have this all removed you can begin to clean the tub area. Here are some pics of mine:
