MDF will not last in a vehicle, any moisture and it will begin to disintergrate. Vibration and ordinary vehicle movement will loosen screws and the whole thing is likely to fall down on ya head. MDF is for Kitchen cupboards not jeeps.
Good concept though, keep working on it you're on the right track.
Nice job, looks good.
Gildo has a good point if you are going to stick with the MDF at least seal it ie paint it. I think it would look really good if you cover it in material matching the roof lining, you can pick up some stuff at Bunnings that is cheap and will do the job nicely.
