there is usually some bracing under the headliner you can use that allow some room for screws. in a worst case scenario, you would use the headliner itself provided that the unit doesnt weigh too much.

Take a couple or 1/4 or 1/2 strips of plywood (about 3 inch rips) and stick them between the headliner and the monitor then screw through the plywood and whalaa the TV's weight distributes throughout the plywood and you have something to screw to.. if your lucky you can screw the plywood to some beams too....

or the old plastic shroud works ok for matching contours...... (ya still need some plywood though...)
