I removed my rear speakers in my old 86 that I had and remember insulation in them as well, although I have no idea if it was like that from factory but it looked very similar to yours. It was an early 86 model, don't know if that makes a difference.

My 84 has an insulation similar to that too.

So far it seems to be a pre 87 look

my 86L has it.

The rear still rattles like a snake, just like it did off the showroom floor.
