I have also been wanting to make use of this extra space for mults.
But, it doesn't seem like the back of those plates are flat enough
to just drill and mount jacks or anything else on them. (I'd be
happy to be proven wrong if somebody else is willing to experiment
by taking a drill to them.)
So, I actually had a plate that is the right size to fit in the
slight depressions on the metal sides above the "Doepfer" plate made
by Front Panel Express (love those guys), with holes drilled for
jacks. When placed in the depressions, this leaves just enough space
for the jacks behind the panel. However, while the plate fits
there, I haven't yet figured out how to keep it from falling off:(
Once I figure out a way to attach the plate to this spot I'll let
you know. Any bright ideas will be appreciated.

the A-180 Mult that I still have (I'm ony 2-HP short of space in my
suitcase for the thing). So, I had this wacky idea: mount it on the
black strip that is above or below the modules themselves. Has
anyone done this I realize I'll "deface" the logo strip, but I just
don't know what else to do, except maybe just mount it on the outer
wall of one side of my case. Yes, I'm that desperate. I keep
thinking " Exchange the dual VCA for the mult Naw. Well, maybe. No.
Hmmm...."

Although the module isn't giving me the Buchla LPG sound I was
hoping for, I love how the Doepfer module behaves.
