I am trying to find a good site or somebody that has good pics of an installatiion of a flipdown unit. I hear and see people saying to use wood to attach the unit but., I don't understand how that would not sag the headliner. I just would like to know if anybody knows of a site that way show a walk through all I need to say is one and they rest should be the same.

Thanks

the reason why the wood doesnt sag the headliner is because it is either wedged between 2 roof support beams, or screwed to them.

In sedans there is always a problem with finding some support beams. In suv's thats never a problem. What you can try to do is adhere the wood to the roof with some good construction adhesive and screw the monitor through the headliner into the wood. But be very careful because you can cause some serious roof damage if your not careful.
